> Hello world, I tried to make a Bejeweled-like game in blocks and found it very difficult, so I created a “sprite grid” extension that can track sprites on a grid. The extension is here (early beta): [https://github.com/microsoft/arcade-grid](https://github.com/microsoft/arcade-grid) And the game is here: [https://makecode.com/\_RbDi9mYx6TwJ](https://makecode.com/_RbDi9mYx6TwJ) Grid extension blocks: Cheers, Daryl
