How did I miss @Brohann’s two great [sound/music hacks](https://forum.makecode.com/t/add-the-option-to-import-audio-petition/26713/24)?:

> I have put together a couple of projects to showcase how far MakeCode has gotten in converting WAVs and MP3s to a format useable in your projects. I will be using Tom’s Diner because it the song originally used to test the mp3 format when it was being created. Here is what I think is pretty good, but it is still pretty garbled thanks to the max sample rate of 20. It was made using @richard’s code. It is the most space efficient as far as lines go, and pretty easy to use. It takes up around 30 …

And here’s an effect actually from and made for the demoscene, by @thegreatone!:

@MrJones’ Quest for colors effect has a lot of potential for nice/smooth color effects!:

> Some of you may have seen my other post on making a 3D renderer from scratch, and the experienced devs seemed politely suggestive that I stick to the native fillTriangle functions. Here I reveal my hand… I’d like to make a game that actively uses more than 16 colors by changing palettes on the fly. This initial demonstration is just a small performance test and proof of concept that shows palettes can be swapped pretty quickly on the fly to allow for an arbitrary number of colors to be displ…

How would this look in combination with for example your plasma, @Jedi?

i think it would look really cool! the plasma image could be used as a texture on a rotating cube like in some demoscenes, actually there are a ton of plasma-like effects we could do (this tutorial helps a ton [https://lodev.org/cgtutor/plasma.html](https://lodev.org/cgtutor/plasma.html)) i think as long as we made the gradient in the plasma just right it would be perfect!

I’m not sure if this is what you’re looking for, but my game [SAMMY SINGER](https://forum.makecode.com/t/unique-a-thon-2-finale-non-official-game-jam/33962/81) is a demo for my upcoming Text to Speech / speech synthesizer / vocaloid extension!

Old post but would be fun to see more nes-style menus on the top/bottom of the menu that use a different palette

These are just some cool patterns I made with some modifications to @Jedi’s plasma code.  
I was messing around with the plasma basics on the website you suggested, then just took your maths to my project. It is in black and white btw. Then I just edited numbers and added in some switching to the other ones (right and left buttons)  
Just edit any of the numbers until it looks cool!
