@Brainstorm_Studios it’s easy!

  1. Go to https://shakao.github.io/arcade-sprite-pack/
  2. Draw all of your tiles in the “Tiles” tab. If you want to import your tiles from a makecode project, click the “import” button in the top right.
  3. When you’re finished, click the export icon in the top-right of the window
  4. Select “Export as tileset .mkcd”
  5. Enter the name you want to appear in the tilemap editor in projects where people add your extension
  6. Click “download”. This will download a .mkcd file with your extension in it

To convert that .mkcd file into an extension you can share, load up arcade.makecode.com in another browser window and drag that file into it. This will open the file as a project. From here, you can either create a share link or use the GitHub button to convert it into a GitHub repo.
