does that include makecode rpg forum
OMG lol, nice job.
Thank you. This is very⦠reassuring. I truly appreciate that. I told my parents, and they said they would respect my career path choice for now on.
And your right. I shouldāt worry about predictions. I am passionate about this and it is something I love. truly thank you. This was a good reminder for me.
NOPE! Games like those have too many features to be made in Makecode
There are a lot of computer programmers in the world. Thatās been the case for at least 15 years. I can go to a site like Fiverr and have a computer programmer write a program for me. Generative AI makes those people even more redundant than they already are.
The problem with Fiverr programmers and generative AI? Theyāre not very good. Their code always needs to be reviewed by good engineers and scientists. We do not have nearly enough of those.
Learning programming is important, as it gets you off of the ground. No one goes to university to become a programmer, though. Your degree is in computer science, or computer engineering, or software engineering, or data science, or mathematics ⦠or something similar ⦠and that is for a reason.
Learn as much as you can while you are in school. If you want to work with computers for a living, then there will always be a place for you ⦠as long as you are constantly learning.
That said ⦠the world always needs good pilots, too. ![]()
Thank you @AlexK. I will do exactly that. Maybe its time I should try and learn Java script?
Dont worry, AI sucks and wont be writing 10000 lines of Correct code anytime soon. I, a person who knows next to nothing about python, had to bugfix AI python code
so its dead?
With more and more use of ai people who can legitimately understand code will be ever more invaluable. I hope that there will be a big pushback against vibe coding in workplaces since itās not always about solving a problem, itās also about making new connections to make new ways to approach issues.
In art the reason why generative ai just isnāt very good is that lack of new connections - we develop unique paths and ways to approach an artwork that ai skips by making a finished piece instead of a process. Iād imagine coding is somewhat similar.
I guess what Iām trying to say is that at the root of it human creativity is still really important even for things like maths and coding

Similar to what Luke said, itās all about the journey. Youāll learn a typing language when youāre ready and when it interests you. Until then, be happy in Blocks. There is so much that you can do in Blocks ⦠wickedly sophisticated things ⦠like object-oriented programming, arrays, parallel arrays, electronics and circuit building, robotics, artificial intelligence in a variety of forms, frame-based animation ⦠and so many other things that we barely touch in courses that use a typing language.
Formal education forces you to follow a particular path that you donāt get to choose ⦠someone else chooses your path for you. Embrace your informal education and the freedom to choose to learn what interests you. Itās the start of your path to lifelong learning, and itās a wonderful thing.
yea i agree with @AtlasTG chat gpt can barely give me any correct code i tell it to give me images of what it looks like and makes up random blocks ive never seen before so youāll be fine! until they make it betterā¦![]()
hello everyone.
im just going to make this very short because of how tired i am, but im putting this straight
im done coding with this program, mainly because Iāve lost my spark and that makecode got banned in my school.
im going to be switching to scratch, but only because it has less limitations, and i can express myself more there i feel.
this community is better. Iāll stick around the forums and like some posts every so often, not much more than that.
also, im just insanely tired and have had no dedication recently so thatās another reason.

aw thats sad! i didnt expect you to leave but i dint think against it.. also this text will be hidden
my grandpa and my mom are pilots so I get the feeling
Hey guys just here to say that Iām leaving the forums, a friend taught me some python, Iāve already made my first fully functional game and Iām working on a new one. I am aware that there is python in makecode but it just doesnāt feel right to me so. Iām moving on, Iāll be back eventually. Hope you all have a good time. goodbye

Alright! I hope to you see you again on day! be sure to check on us sometimes!
Uhh im back after a long time, and can finally go back to coding in Makecode ![]()
Hi all, I just wanted to let everyone know that I am not completely gone, still checking posts sometimes and still making some games, just not very activeā¦
It seems some of the best users of 2025 arenāt really active anymore.
Fixy, Bot and a few others.
(Why did I call you guys that?)
Fixitude and BotWarrior.
