# Welcome to… [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/c/8/c85322cb386445c06f4aa3b4485fa40265ba977f.png)](https://forum.makecode.com/t/channel-0-makecode-news/27349) It’s been an exciting and active week on the Microsoft MakeCode Forums so let’s get into this edition of Channel 0 MakeCode News. ## The MakeCode Forums 3 (status report) > [@Chatting Area! Have fun!](https://forum.makecode.com/t/chatting-area-have-fun/8740/1104): > > The MakeCode Forums 3 reached 1000 blocks only very recently! I’d estimate it at about 30% done. > > @AlexK assisted with the transferring of assets into the game via [this post](https://forum.makecode.com/t/transferring-game-assets-between-projects/29602). Thanks @AlexK, you’re THE GOAT. Like, THE BEST. Made the development much faster! > > The user interface in the game is a little bit different, and DaPro Games has officially listened to @richard’s on stream request of maintaining control over the speed of the posts. That’s right! **You now press A to continue to the next post! It is no longer automatic!** As for the user interface though, The MakeCode Forums 3 has been styled up completely, with borders for each post, and badges shown badges for each user! > > As well as all of this, The MakeCode Forums 3 now allows website scroll (this took exceptionally long lol)! You can move your cursor to the bottom of the screen to “push” the camera down, and vice versa for up. > > The lore for The MakeCode Forums 3 has been officially completed! It’s going to be a wild ride… > > As I’m writing this, @Luke has provided all new character art for The MakeCode Forums 3! Thanks @Luke! He and @Octodemon will be in the credits. All this news sounds so good, and I can’t wait for the game. ## To GameStop or not to GameStop. That is the question. There have been some disagreements in the weekly topic for forum users favorite store. After @PixelDoodle mentioned expecting people to say GameStop > [@label Weekly Topic: Favorite Store](https://forum.makecode.com/t/weekly-topic-favorite-store/29617/7): > > I’m betting more than half the replies will be _Gamestop_ This would come out to be pretty much true as GameStop seemed popular. See for yourself here: > [@label Weekly Topic: Favorite Store](https://forum.makecode.com/t/weekly-topic-favorite-store/29617/10): > > GameStop! > [@label Weekly Topic: Favorite Store](https://forum.makecode.com/t/weekly-topic-favorite-store/29617/12): > > Gamestop Then a user by the name of @Brohann said… > [@label Weekly Topic: Favorite Store](https://forum.makecode.com/t/weekly-topic-favorite-store/29617/26): > > i hate gamestop Which led to users saying stuff like this: > [@label Weekly Topic: Favorite Store](https://forum.makecode.com/t/weekly-topic-favorite-store/29617/27): > > AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH ## The Pixel Checklist @PixelDoodle made a whole topic for there to do list. And it’s got some pretty cool upcoming games in it. This fills me with excitement so I can’t wait to see what these games will look like. ## Game of the Week! This was hard to decide but I’d have to give game of the week to @MYR with his/her game “Sword of Light”. This game is super impressive and easy but hard at the same time. I love it! Play the game yourself [here](https://forum.makecode.com/t/sword-of-light-game/29634). ## The middle or... the end! @jnegative announced moving on from MakeCode and that they are learning other languages. There wording makes it unclear whether they are leaving or staying. But if you are leaving good luck with your journey. ## Reflections A close contender for game of the week was the game reflections by @Jedi play it yourself [here](https://forum.makecode.com/t/simple-reflections/29636). * * * Well, that’s been this edition of Channel 0 MakeCode News! Good luck on your MakeCode’n! # RobbyZero out --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.makecode.com/t/channel-0-makecode-news/27349)._
