I think i use break. I use it to stop a repeat # of times block if a condition is met(like the flappy bird falling into the void after hitting an object)

I use them in Javascript mostly
`break` is used in a switch/case statement to specify the end of the case or whatever, like this:
```auto
let var = randint(0,10)
switch(var) {
case 0:
//run code here if var == 0
break
case 1:
//run code for var == 1
break
//etc.
```
switch/case is basically an if statement, but because the condition doesn’t enclose its code in brackets ({}) you have to use `break` or it will run all the conditions’ code.
`continue` is used to skip out of a loop (like a for loop for example) so you can stop running it early, like this:
```auto
let var = randint(0,10)
let returnNum = 0
for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
if (i == var) {
//Found the value of Var, so stop running the extra code
returnNum = i
continue
}
}
console.log("var = " + returnNum)
```
If for example var is only 2, then it’s not optimal to run this loop another 8 times when you’ve already found the value, so you’d use `continue` to exit the function early. In this example it doesn’t really matter (and you could just log var initially anyway) but for more code-heavy calculations and stuff you don’t want to run the same thing over and over if you don’t need to.

They’re not talking about Celeste, they’re talking about a game called Haiku the Robot

Idk why but I feel MakeCode forums are actually at their peak rn. I think it’s gonna grow for a while cause of the scratch ai thing but will plateau for like 5 months and then fall off I want to see if this prediction holds up so let’s see

Well you should try it if you haven’t, always good to see the original idea for a game you enjoy (kinda like playing LoZ LttP after playing BotW or TotK)
