> **[some space game](https://arcade.makecode.com/46282-68527-43223-34156)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. Hello! So this game is _obviously_ heavily inspired by Innersloth’s “Among Us”. I wanted to make a “story” type game rather than a multiplayer game like “Among Us” is. I felt like there is **so** much you could do with this concept that Innersloth has provided. So, I’ve begun to make this game. Feel free to put suggestions, improvements, and ideas down below. 🤗 \*\* I will update regularly \*\* ---

There’s an `ask for string` block in the `game` category. ---

Sure! I don’t know how to explain it- Let me pull up the code ---

Code is always better than an explanation. 😉 Except my code. It’s ugly as heck. ---

My code is always a mess- thats why I only showed the 3 blocks! 😰 ---

Geez. I don’t even use format code as often. My room is like a junk drawer with a junk drawer. And my minecraft builds are not even in a good spot either ---

I don’t even _use_ format code! I just drag them everywhere until they don’t overlap ---

I’ve started to try and organize my code with functions. Its an extra step but at least it looks better! ---
