Does the makecode screen have to be 160 by 120? or can I make it something bigger like this: > **[Bigger Screen](https://arcade.makecode.com/83755-48654-05603-04803)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. ---

This isn’t very on topic but do you think one of the next mini game jams could be a returning big game jam theme? Like with the 5 second game jam. I think it would be kind of cool to find out what some new-ish users would’ve made for some old game jams. Right @Richard? ---

Yes, that’s true, i guess. I won’t be entering tho, I’d rather keep this game freely designed, if you know what I mean.
