Step-by-Step Tutorial

Search Scratch for a Sprunki or Incredibox-style template marked remixable. Remixing gives you the drag-and-drop stage logic for free.
Replace the template sprites with your own characters. Keep them simple — bold shapes read best at small sizes. Name each sprite after its sound role (beat, melody, vocal, effect).
Record or import one loop per character. Trim each loop to the same length (e.g. 4 bars) so layers stay in sync — this is the most important technical step.
In each character sprite, add a when-this-sprite-clicked/placed script that plays its loop. Copy the pattern from the template.
Make sure placing a character starts its loop and removing it stops the loop. Test with 3–4 characters layered.
Add a Black Hat-style sprite that, when placed, swaps every character to a dark costume and switches loops to eerie versions — this is what makes Sprunki mods go viral.
Playtest: all loops in sync, mute/remove works, no overlapping audio glitches. Fix timing issues before publishing.
Share the project, write a clear description, and credit the template creator and any assets you remixed.
Tips for a Great Sprunki Mod
- Sync is everything: loops of mismatched lengths are the #1 beginner mistake. Keep every loop the same bar count and tempo.
- Limit your first roster: 6–8 characters is plenty for v1. You can always expand later.
- Give each character a distinct role: don't make five characters that all sound like drums.
- The horror trigger is your viral hook: even a simple costume swap doubles shareability.
- Credit your sources: the Sprunki community is strict about credit — always name template and asset creators.
FAQ
Yes. Start by remixing an existing Sprunki-style template — you get the drag-and-drop logic for free and only need to swap art and sounds.
Basic Scratch block coding is enough. A remixable template handles the hard parts; you mainly edit sprites and sounds.
A first playable version takes about 2–4 hours. Polished mods with horror modes take longer.
Only with permission and credit. The community takes asset credit seriously — draw your own or use explicitly remixable assets.
