Field notes
The introductory walkthrough moves from a Start-event block to a loop that draws a square, then to a character that walks and bounces. The listed feature set also includes parallel scripts, messages between characters, custom blocks with parameters, and sounds generated in the browser. The page says characters and backgrounds were drawn for PolBlocks, and identifies the project as a sister project to PolLOGO.
