It does both, since you’re part of the studio your game would be a game that the studio works on. I don’t know how many people will help though. What is your game? ---

It’s a dungeon crawler where you explore a procedurally generated dungeon and advance to deeper and deeper floors. I haven’t finished the combat system yet, but when I do, I’ll post a demo. But I don’t really need people to work on the game itself, but feedback and little outside things would help a lot. One thing I need to know: **Is there a `create tilemap with (0)width and (0)height`?** I would really need this for my generator because it can generate many differently sized maps but right now it has to pick from pre-sized tilemaps and fill the rest with walls. What would help my game a lot, and would be also very useful for the whole community would be a **particle extension** that I had planned, but I’ll need some help with it. > **Particle extension idea** > > I started making it with block-objects but realised it would be much better to make it an extension > > [https://arcade.makecode.com/S77812-62168-59560-80490](https://arcade.makecode.com/S77812-62168-59560-80490) > > now I decided to make it into an extension, but **I have never made an extension** or actually anything 100% in JS. > > * * * > > Here is what is planned to be in the extension: > > ## Particles > > all particles have these properties: > > - x position > - y position > - x velocity > - y velocity > - acceleration(multiplicative: 1=velocity is constant, 2=velocity doubled every second, 0.5=velocity halved every second) > - lifetime > - static/dynamic > - +skipframe properties(I explain those lower) > > #### Simple particles > > Has just one color > > #### Texture particles > > Has an image > > #### Animated particle > > Has an animation(image list) and a frame duration + values for correctly changing frames during lagspikes or skipframes > > #### Fire particle > > Goes through a gradient(for example white, yellow, orange, red) and accelerates upwards > > Also has a `spark` boolean that adds four additional pixels around it that have the next color of the gradient > > ## Spawners > > spawns particles > > has properties: > > - x > > - y > > - square/circle > > - size(sidelength/radius) > > - spawn delay (because of how its coded it can spawn multiple particles per frame) > > - attached(sprite/tile) > > - lifetime min and max > > - velocity min and max for x and y > > - acceleration > > - +values for specific particle types(color, texture…) > > ## Functions > > not sure what to call them but they are used to **influence already existing particles** > > #### accelerate > > direction, strength > > #### move > > x, y, relative(boolean) > > #### kill > > #### disintegrate > > turns each pixel of a texture or animated particle into its own simple particle > > ### Global functions > > functions but on all existing particles at the same time > > #### global accelerate > > #### radial accelerate > > can be used for explosions > > ## Function areas > > areas that do stuff to particles that are in them > > they have properties: > > - x > - y > - square/circle > - size(sidelength/radius) > - enabled > > #### accelerate > > dir, strength > > +some way to make it stronger at the center than at the edges > > #### wrap > > particles that come from one side are teleported to the other > > #### kill > > just a kill area > > #### displace > > makes particles that are in it appear offseted, but its only visual, they actual coordinates arent influenced > > ## other things > > #### skipframes > > you can give particles, spawners and function areas skipframes.

It would be very nice if we could make this extension the project of the studio, but I’m not sure if others will agree. Also, I heard that in Sword Studio they were doing something in GitHub so they can work on it at the same time, should we do that too? Also, I started making a demo of the extension in JS. I might make a newer version before this gets approved. > **[advanced particles](https://arcade.makecode.com/S86402-02107-06355-88406)** > > just particles and spawners, no skipframes and nothing that wasnt in the block-object version. ---

If you want to, you could help me by drawing some enemies, I had a bit of trouble with that. Because of the story (the story is a bit complicated, but you don’t need to know it all), the enemies should be plants or fungi enchanted by black magic, but they dont have to. The enemies I currently planned are different types of moss creatures (I tried drawing them, but they all just looked like slimes), dark magic dead trees, and a dandelion (it should be quite small, and it shoots). But if you have any other ideas, that would help too! I thought about adding skeletons but it didn’t really fit. The images should be between 10x10 - 60x60 (the screen size is 240 x 180), they need to use the default palette and look good on a greyish background (they will be in a dungeon made of "_stone bricks"_) Also here is the player for reference: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/b/4/b4b931b4568e1a650b8e10cc7203815f071b198f.png)(without items) Nobody is forced to draw for me obviously, if you don’t want to, then don’t do it. Also, the game is called Curse of Nythar. (It’s because of the story) ---
