# THE MAKECODE FORUMS IS IN DANGER.

@scamma’s backstory is FINALLY HERE! I’ve had this idea for a backstory in my head for a while now, and I tried to make it link in smoothly with the first “The MakeCode Forums game. This game does not occur in The Forumverse, but rather another game entirely, which is why I attempted to change the colour palette as well as art style (it ain’t a masterpiece).

Despite this game intending to be a mini halfway-point game, it actually ended up being 1630 blocks… 💀 my poor, poor iPad… I’m sorry…

Along with that, there is one extremely small area that I couldn’t debug. The issue is that if you spam A when it saves the first time, it will _very slightly_ mess things up. Like, INSIGNIFICANT. But I still think you should all know about it.

The gameplay in The Wrath of Vortex is turn-based, so it will be entering the mini game jam! The layout of the turn based section was inspired by Omori, a game that I played recently.

> **Epilogue Information (for when you complete the game)**
>
> So, scammaMAX enters The MakeCode Forums. He knows of the moderators, and their power over The Forums, so he focuses on removing their access from the site. Once that’s done, he goes onto the forums, and starts acting cruel and ruthless.
> 
> Then, YOU appear. You are THE PLAYER. Once you post, scamma says, “Uh {Profile name}, Why are YOU here? I’m about to destroy the forums, and YOU show up?”. He knows it’s THE PLAYER. If you ask why he’s doing all this, he LIES. He has never been on the forum before then. As well as that, he never brings it up. No one knows what his question was, because he never had a question. No one has asked about it yet.
> 
> At the start, scamma’s profile picture is an exclamation mark. He has not fully adapted to entering The MakeCode Forums, and after the first part, he’s finally gotten used to the place.

Finally, here are some people that helped me mentally when I was building this game (if it weren’t for these people, this game would be coming out next month lol)

@pecan4pi - Thanks for being a kind person! 😁  
Mr. @Sarge - Thanks for being cool! 🕶  
@PixelDoodle - Thanks for bringing joy! 😂  
@Luke - Thanks for giving me creativity! 🎨  
@Future_Knight - Thanks for being a (slightly mischievous) friend! 😜  
@danger_kitty - Thanks for being an inspiration! ✨  
@InvalidProject - Thanks for being resilient! 🎵

And thanks to everyone else who tries this game!

Hey everyone,

First off, I want to give a massive shoutout to all of you for your incredible support and love for “The MakeCode Forums 0.5: The Wrath of Vortex.” The fact that so many of you enjoyed it and have been so positive about it means the world to me. Seriously, thank you. 🙏

That being said, I need to be upfront and address a few things about the game that have been bugging me. I’ve been reflecting on the whole development process, and while I’m happy you guys think it’s good, I feel like I owe you an honest explanation about some areas where I feel I screwed up.

# The Art and Animations 🎨🎬

Let’s start with the visuals. I know, I know – some of you have said the art style is “unique,” and I truly appreciate those kind words. But, if I’m being real, I rushed through a lot of the art and animations. Juggling all aspects of the game is tough, but I feel like I could’ve pushed myself more in this area. There are parts where the animation is just… bad? Or where the art feels a bit inconsistent, and that’s on me. I wanted to bring a richer, more polished visual experience, but time constraints and my own limitations got in the way.

# Scamma’s Dialogue 📜🗣

Now, let’s talk about our main guy, Scamma. He’s been a fan favorite since the first game, and I really wanted to do him justice in this prequel. But looking back, I realize that his dialogue could have been way better. Some lines just feel a bit off.

# What’s Next? 🚀✨

Here’s the deal: I’m taking all your feedback to heart and using it for some parts of The MakeCode Forums 3. **THE MAKECODE FORUMS 3 WILL NOT BE ONE GAME**. It will require THE PLAYER to leave The Forumverse. Which is why, especially art wise, I really need to up my game.

### Thank You 🙏❤

At the end of the day, the fact that you’re enjoying “The Wrath of Vortex” means so much. Your support is what keeps me going, and I’m incredibly grateful for this community. I know there were shortcomings, and I’m going to do everything I can to make sure the next game is a step up in every way.

So, to wrap this up: Thank you for your understanding, your patience, and most importantly, your support. I’m learning and growing, and I can’t wait to show you what I’ve got planned next. Keep being awesome, and keep that feedback coming – it’s what makes all of this possible.

Cheers,

ChimbroDaPro 🕶

The game is easy and long.  
It would take minutes to defeat such an easy boss.

A bit of Vocab for anyone confused:

```auto
Universe: A game made by any user in The Forumverse.
THE PLAYER: YOU. Not the people in The Forumverse, but YOU, the person looking at the screen.
Hyperlinkfusion: A name developed by Vortex that describes the transportation of a being between universes.
The Forumverse: A culmination of universes, where Users create universes and give feedback on each other’s universes (not the REAL forums that we discuss on).
User: Everyone in The Forumverse that is not THE PLAYER.
Overlord: The strongest being in a universe (eg. @MakeCode is the strongest being in The Forumverse).
