Does anybody know how to make a extension that adds extra buttons on the sim and in the coding menus?

I wish. more keys would be epic tho. however than they would have to change the hardware, and it would be a whole hassle. It would be great, but adding more buttons would not be very easy for the makecode team.

You should be able to choose if you want the classic or X and Y when you make a game

Extensions cannot modify sim behavior. This would require a rewrite of fundamental makecode features.
