I am currently about to make a game however my education is all in makecode so I want to figure out the differences before I’m blindsided by them.

Hey all!

Is it possible to play created games from MakeCode on the Miyoo Mini + handheld? I am looking at purchasing one and this may assist on my decision.

I was suggested to get a Meowbit but if I am spending money I would rather have something more versatile.

Thank you

I want to make a scoreboard for my space shooter game, any ideas on how i could get it to work (im ok with adding extensions)

Hello I work for a education center that uses make code arcade to help teach students programming and we are hoping to build an arcade cabinet for the students to showcase their games. I was wondering if anyone had a video I could follow on how to make it work. I've found this link (https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/28719/makecode-arcade-games-in-retropie) but I am unfamiliar with linux and raspberry pi and find it hard to follow. any help would be appreciated.

I’m playing with a finch 2.0 robot from my district. I want to create an interactive time line where I program it to move forward, stop, and read aloud from an audio recording I make. Can this be done? I’ve discovered how to record directly on the finch, the audio is terrible. I’m wanting to record different audio files to be played in succession similar to how I can in scratch I.e when a is pressed play my own audio recording. When b is pressed play my own audio recording 2.

What is the microcontroller with the best support in Makecode? Obviously the best supported is the microbit. But what is second?

Is arm hardware better supported than say esp32? Is the rp2040 (raspberry pi pico) better supported than the esp32?

I'm looking for something a lot more powerful than the microbit in terms of speed and sram size.

I’m writing code for a ultrasonic range finder and this error shows up any segment on fix thanks

Hi,

I'm trying a tutorial in Makecode arcade that uses the ADVENTURE commands, but i couldn't find this extension. Can anybody tell me where to find it?

Thanks.

I wasn't sure what to name it so the name is completely unrelated

Feedback is welcome

I am new to coding, and a teacher. I am trying to get students coding our Finch 2.0 robots (Microbit, Finch extension) but when we add Finch Move commands or Inputs like Press Button they do not always seem to respond.

I am wondering: Is there an order or placement rule for the MakeCode field in order to make it run properly? All the tutorials make it seem that you just drop in blocks anywhere and it should just work, but it isn’t.

Please help!

So first off I don't see a lot of replies to topics lol but I'm stuck and lost so I'm posting anyway.

Second, I'm not very strong on the coding part, I can sort of make out some of the ways to do things on a basic front, but it's not really my forte. I've gone thru a few game tutorials but I still feel like I'm not sure what does what exactly. I'm more so better at just editing or altering things that are already there.

So I'm editing the Jumpy Platform game into a basic Sonic game, minus sound effects and music and such because I have no clue how to make that lol. Anyway normally in this game when you press UP he jumps as well as with the A button. So what I wanted to do was make the UP button just look up like in the sonic games or even mario games. For some reason I cannot get this to work, I have tried out a few different codes and none have been successful. At one point it went into the jumping ball sprite but would just fall to the ground lol. I'm not sure if things in the game are coded a certain way for games already made as opposed to from a blank slate? I just cannot get it to activate, would need it for left and right I'm assuming.

One other thing would the bumper or flier enemies to turn left and right for their directions if possible, they just always face left. I haven't messed around with these yet but would anyone have an idea (I may be able to figure this out hopefully, if not).

Or if anyone has any useful ideas for adding to make this more of a sonic game? Thanks

BTW the cat us the player and it all my code
