Scratchtober is an annual Scratch event that occurs every October. Inspired by Inktober, the event highlights a specific prompt each day.[1] Scratchers are then invited to create projects based on that prompt. The prompt changes every day, but Scratchers are allowed to use previous prompts from that year for the duration of the event.[1]
