Can I listen for PyGamer's Start button in MakeCode Arcade?

Hello there!

Can I listen for PyGamer’s Start button in MakeCode Arcade? Right now it looks like I can only listen for Select which is labeled “menu” in MakeCode Arcade.

Good question, asked myself that too. So far I didn’t find a documented way to do that in MakeCode, as the control set is standardized (since MakeCode runs on many devices, not just the PyGamer). So, I believe it’s not possible in any consumer friendly way. Maybe someone knows a hacky workaround?

I know there is a way to use the lights, I have seen them used before. Maybe someone could make an extension for this? I don’t know enough even though I have one.

I looked at the code for kittenbots Bluetooth extension for the meowbit and I saw some stuff that has to do with memory/ram. Mabey if you look at a memory/ram address you could get it. So I change my mind about it.
