Going forward

Im gonna try and keep this short.

ive recently just finished developing Pixel Smash…and that, along with chilling with yall, was my main motivation to keep using makecode. i feel like ive done all i really wanted to do here. i (hopefully) left my mark here and thats something im pretty proud of. I hope i did something you guys think is genuinely impressive. Not just like “oh this is pretty cool” like “Holy crap this is amazing!!”

Right now, Makecode is a lower priority for me as i have less free time.

  • im likely starting work soon (trying to apply to home depot),
  • Next year is my junior year of high school (which people say is the hardest year :folded_hands:),
  • i gotta start socializing more (i have a good amount of friends but im the BIGGEST ambivert of all time lmao)
  • and in the little free time i have, ive started learning how to use other game engines (Unity, Love2D, Gamemaker studio, all that stuff)

This also probably means…THIS IS LIKELY THE END OF NEW PROJECTS OF MINE THAT REQUIRE A LARGE DEVLOG.

Now if youre wondering; “Why didnt you make this post in Comings and Goings?” Well, its because IM NOT GOING. Ive tried leaving before and then i realized no mortal can simply leave makecode lol. im still working on Gena!! and a bunch of other smaller projects (i still havent really started on The Forum Makes A GAME! hehe…my bad) Im just going to be working them WAAAAAY slower that i normally do.

So yea. Just a little update on what im going to be doing in the future! Thank you guys for everything!

Peace :v:

dude.. you made smash brothers in crappy and laggy conditions. WITH BLOCKS!! I DON’T THINK YOU UNDERSTAND THIS, BUT YOU ARE AN AMAZING CODER!! EVEN WITH CONSTANT SUBMISSIONS FROM PEOPLE ASKING FOR CHARACTERS EVEN THOUGH ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS YOU SAID “no more character submissions, please.”, YOU MADE IT THROUGH, AND MADE ONE OF THE LARGEST GAMES ON MAKECODE. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, ITS ON THE HOMESCREEN!!

Not only pixel smash, but [Gena!!] Is a masterpiece as well.

I hope you understand my point here, because its 1 AM in the morning, and I have already dropped my phone on my face multiple times because I dirfted off whlie typeing so i dont wannt keep typinf because if eel like im going to have a noseblwed if i drop my.phone again

Unpopular opinion, senior year is worse. Fight me.


All things aside, you’ve left an impact. We hope you’ll still be around to participate in a (mini or not) game jam once in a while!
