Here you can download a number of older Scratch files, both during Scratch's development, Scratch's Flash rewrite's development, Scratch release versions, and versions of "Net Scratch"-- a leaked version which was intended to have the ability to retrieve random trivia from the internet. The origins of the October 11, 2003 version are less certain, but is still included here for completeness.

- Note: The original Net Scratch images have a critical bug causing them to freeze every 30 seconds due to the master server now being offline. retro_person has created a modified version of the images which do not attempt to connect to the server, although this makes the networking blocks unusable:

- These images are from the Flash Player feature from ScratchR, which contained all of Scratch 2.0 but with the editing features removed. djdolphin has modified them to show the editor again. I have other Scratch 2.0 files identified via a three-digit version number, but they are not listed here as there are hundreds of them and they appear to be virtually identical. I am thinking of better ways to organize these, but these are all the dated versions I have
The October 2004 build is the oldest still available for download directly from MIT servers at https://llk.media.mit.edu/courses/software/scratch/ (archived version- this was online for an amazing 17 years but has been pulled offline as of 2022-01-23)
This version contains a plentiful amount of information, including the October 2004 build, some sample projects in that version, and a large amount of documentation. Five other pre-release versions are available but only in .image files.
A number of sample projects from 2006 are available at https://web.media.mit.edu/~jmaloney/mit_scratch/
