@Sonicblaston is it okay if I copy your code for the stuff on top of the screen  
 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/d/9/d96721c907eb420b67efdf312aab18990d34f8c8.png)  
I would use it for my mario game (It’s a working progress)

By the way, I would love to borrow your code for the camera. Where you can’t move back where you came from.

@Sonicblaston how did you get the “Super Mario Bros” font?

you can use this for more accurate physics if you want  
there’s a lot of stuff missing(i.e. enemies, crouching, some animations) but as far as movement goes it feels somewhat close to the original game

I painstakingly made it myself. sadly I don’t think there is any way to reverse engineer the file. I did post a link to the font earlier on this topic. However it doesn’t work correctly at all since it doesn’t have spacing between characters. I did update and fix this on my release of the game. I was only able to do this since I hadn’t closed down the website I used to make it yet. Meaning I could still edit it. @richard Is it possible to get the font sharelink from inside a game that already uses it?

@Sonicblaston are you trying to re-import the font into the font tool? not sure if i allow that or not…

but to get the link, it’s easy.

1. duplicate your project
2. open the duplicated project
3. switch to javascript
4. in the file explorer under the simulator, select “pxt.json”
5. inside this file, there should be an entry for the font extension that you can copy
6. it will be of the format `pub:xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx`. you want the “credit card number” part of that and the url will be `arcade.makecode.com/xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx`

make sure to do this in the duplicate of your project so that you don’t harm the original!

and to make things easier, here’s the font:

Thanks so much. I have been concerned about this when making other fonts. therefore I saved the sharelinks for my newer fonts in a text file for safe keeping

being able to reimport would be really nice too. When I made the font the first time around. I messed up some of the settings. but then I had already closed the tab. meaning I had to make the entire thing again.

alright Guys, I give up my Mario Game what happen this time is that all of the code got deleted, so @Sonicblaston you can use the remains of the sprites in my game for your game.
