# Welcome to…

 ![IMG_0466](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/6/641265280eca44a12abde85c3cbbfe7528709cc0.png)  
We have some pretty cool stuff in the **month** we’ve been gone so once again: Let’s get started!

## Customizing info features with blocks!

You heard me. @AlexK made a super useful extension for coloring game lifes, scores, and countdowns. I’m super excited about this given that I asked for it. But now even people who aren’t familiar with JavaScript can color and change the appearance for their games. This news is so big, and I’m so excited to share it with all of you! If you want to go see that check out the link [here](https://forum.makecode.com/t/petition-for-coloring-info-blocks/30460/4).

## Awesome shaders!

A user by the name of @Jedi made some excellent shaders that are very easy to implement into your very own game. These shaders are so useful. So Jedi Channel 0 wants to personally thank you for your efforts.  
If you want to use these shaders check out the topic [here](https://forum.makecode.com/t/some-fun-shaders/30445).

## Mangate lore!

@Octodemon just dropped some new magnate lore.

[Geography dash](https://forum.makecode.com/t/geography-dash/30449) ye

## New [game jam](https://forum.makecode.com/t/announcement-makecode-arcade-mini-game-jam-23-tiny-worlds-jam/30434)!

You heard me! There is a new game jam in town. Thanks to @osullivp for the theme!

## Audio [clips](https://forum.makecode.com/t/help-with-custom-audio-clips-again/30384) in MakeCode!

@UnsignedArduino made custom audio clips in MakeCode and it is totally worth looking at and not a Rick-Roll because he openly says what the song is.

## [Crate dungeons](https://forum.makecode.com/t/the-adm-f-makecade/27695/31)!

@ADM_F made a super cool game called crate dungeons I highly recommend it and I love the game!

## Thank you guys!

I want to apologize for the extremely late post but I want to thank you for being patient! I could not have done it without @Luke @Archer_Bright and @CopySprite thank you all and we will see you in the next one. Goodbye and good luck on your MakeCode’n!
