also, Here’s Demo 2 : [https://makecode.com/\_20P0VsbpY7yE](https://makecode.com/_20P0VsbpY7yE). Demo 3 Will Likely Be One World And Demo 4 Will Be One But Fixed To Work On The Console. Also Question, Do We Have A Name For the Console? ---

okay, so I’ll make an optional PIN setup when you first get into the console. ---

Ok wait I found a bug, if you press the A button on the startup screen it stops the project, probably a “failed to cast on null” error, trying to make the non-existent player jump. You could fix this by using an if statement around the code in the A button loop; “if [playersprite] then”. This will check whether the player sprite is created or not. ---

Alright, we’ve finally come up with a name for this console! BARRIER Barricade8! [@moderators](https://forum.makecode.com/groups/moderators) can you please change this topic’s title to “Barricade8: BARRIER console” please? ---

BTW the 8 is for 8-bit, not like it’s the 8th console we’ve made or anything. ---

Ok, Due To Unforeseen Circumstances, Demo 3/4 Will Be Late (its kinda have been but still). They Should Come Out Soon Though ---

question, How The Barricade8 Work? (Also It Sounds More Like A Computer, Like Here’s A List. - Atari 800 - Commodore 64 - Commodore VIC-20 etc.) ---

Ok, Now That I Look Back At It, It’ll Likely Take More Time. So I Readied And Added To My Old Game, 1942 : Makecode And Added Some Extra Things, Like A Hard Mode.

It’s gonna be a single makecode program, but with multiple games inside of it, kind of like [makecode infinity](https://forum.makecode.com/t/makecode-infinity/22657), but instead of simple, very small games it will be able to run games with thousands of lines of code. It’ll have a startup screen, home menu, game store, and hopefully tons of games. ---

Okay @teaeat100 I fixed a couple glitches with the player joining and stuff but other than that I changed nothing, and congratulations on being the first to submit a game to the Barricade8! This is optional, but could you please make a 64x48 pixel thumbnail for the console menu? if you choose not to do this, now worries I’ll just use a “screenshot” from the game. ---

@WoofWoof I’m having a problem with the pxt-zoom extension, it’s not wanting to zoom in at all inside of the “startgame” function. @teaeat100 here is the demo project with your game in it: > **[Barricade8 w/ 1942](https://arcade.makecode.com/S01608-69961-59895-66148)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. but as mentioned above the screen resolution is all messed up. @Kiwiphoenix364 I’m not sure if you know anything about this, but the pxt-zoom extension does not work inside of separate scenes. ---

not sure if my last comment will get approved first or not but whatever @teaeat100 @WoofWoof @Kiwiphoenix364 I’ve found a way to fix it but it’s not ideal. > **[Barricade8 w/ 1942](https://arcade.makecode.com/73477-30423-18802-24081)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. if anyone could find a way to fix the zoom extension using WoofWoof’s strategy that would be great.
