  I carry around a notebook with me everywhere that contains all sorts of weird (and sometimes good) ideas that I'll scribble down. If I want to start a new project, I'll just go through the notebook to see what's the most reasonable thing I could work on. I'm not a great graphical designer, so I stick to simpler looking games. (This helps a lot sometimes because then I can focus more on the actual gameplay rather than the graphics half the time.)

  As for procrastination, I've gotten hours of work done by putting on my headphones and listening to music as I do things. You'd be surprised how well listening to music works!

  Having a friend do some art for me for a game I've been working on the concept for recently:

  Just something I'm working on for Cube Chaos. Graphic-wise it doesn't even closely compete with these other games <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink"> I'm not a great graphic designer so I stick to more simplistic graphics and focus on the gameplay.

  

  The GIF is a little big, so here's the full thing: https://i.imgur.com/E2pOzbT.gif

  I'm mainly trying to get everything set up for Multiplayer in the near future, so I'm working on setting up "classes" and what not. More classes will be coming in the future. If you have any ideas for a class, let me know! And if you'd like to do a bug-check, here's a link to what I upload tests to: http://cubechaos.bitballoon.com/

  After almost a year of working on other projects, I decided to revisit my original (semi)successful game; Cube Chaos. I introduce the first installment of Cube Chaos 2.0:

  Judging from how you set the conditions, since your animation is constantly playing, it constantly plays the sound. Adding a "trigger once while true" sub-event might help. Unless that isn't the effect you're going for.

  [quote:2d2iu0vo] A more advanced topic would be if you wanted to specify only the last created instance of an object in an expression - you can do this with the IID - Sprite(-1).Expression, where the -1 represents the last created instance of this object. https://www.scirra.com/manual/78/expressions

  This worked beautifully. Thank you!

  For example, say I have a block and I have a System event that creates a new block. How can I select only this newest created block and move its location without moving the last one created? I can elaborate more if needed.

  Hmm, it is quite a bit to ask, especially if you haven't tried figuring it out yourself. Are there any current games we could look at that demonstrate a mechanic you want to create, so we can get a better idea of what you're asking?

  Here are some links that might be relevant, depending how you look at them:

  Could you provide more details about what you're asking? Do you mean switch blocks like in a grid-puzzle game like Candy Crush/Bejeweled?
