Um shameless self-promotion here but I’d really like it if more people actually saw the topic I made for [Suit Showdown](https://forum.makecode.com/t/suit-showdown/38810); it’s great to play with friends and everything from player health to whether or not power-ups spawn can be customized to make every match interesting. Also cool rotating guns go brrrrrr ---

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again just in a more detailed and direct way. Channel 0 is not dead! We have multiple problems that make it really hard to make editions. 1. Time zones. 2. Work itself 3. All the little things For all this I don’t blame us for all the time spent on this. I also don’t blame anyone for taking extra time. This newspaper doesn’t make money so people don’t get paid the people do this out of the kindness of their heart and for that even if we can’t get editions out as often as I like I’m very grateful for getting any out at all. Thank you Channel 0 News members! Thank you people who read C0, look forward to C0, and people who just spent time to read this. ---

BOOM! is an overhead adventure game where a happy little cube named Bob wanders out farther than his village and is accidentally assigned to save the world. Unfortunately, this is only the demo version, and only has the first world, but there will definitely be more later. For now, though, I hope you like it! More details below: (Spoilers) Story: Ideas: My friend (who started this) Me Very … BOOM!

Your game could be about metaphorically stealing something (like hearts or minds), or it could simply have a plot that is set in motion by a heist that happened before the game even … We’ll talk about the game jam more in the next edition on November 6. **Halloween!** ![Spooky_Spark](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/2/a/2acaa00c3d03792344be65b93aecc003b94e98bf.png) Today is October 31, and what day is that?

there’s a form you need to sign and along with it is a survey. after that, @RobbyZero will decide if you can join the team or not. since you’re new though I’m not too sure if he’ll let you in, and we’re in the middle of developing an article.
