Not exactly chatting in the game, but like at least using multiplayer mouse system
I think they meant diagonal to. The speed is Math.sqrt(x*x + y*y), but also, don’t forget that makecode sprites use delta time.
oh ok thansk lol
Yeah and we also have this special block? (I think) it checks all directions
It’s in Sprite-Utils extension

that’s why I recommend trying to use a smaller palette!!! It’s much much harder to balance and use a palette of 15 colours compared to a simpler one of 2-6.
Yes, it’s very different to use smaller palettes, but it’s a lot easier to learn. Having more colours won’t make it easier to learn pixel art because the limited palette is what makes it pixel art instead of another art form.

I was thinking of buying a domain and using a raspberry pi to do something like this with webhooks, but the problem is that anyone could edit the project and send whatever high score they wanted and there’s no real way to detect it. And also having people enter a username to go with their score would obviously result in inappropriate names on the leaderboard. I would have to only send the game to friends or something and that’s no fun.

ohhhhhhhh cool if you want help if you need HTML code I can help I know how to use HTML and you could try a code based username where instead of a name try using numbers

Yes! I was thinking about it after sending that post and came up with the same idea, though it would certainly be less interesting looking at a leaderboard filled with numbers instead of usernames. I could always auto generate a username with a list of words put together, like auto generated gamer tags. Certainly a lot to think about, but getting it working first will be the biggest part.

well you could I think combine them so numbers into letters like 10101010010000101010 but though thats kinda hard to understand you could try 0nly 3 letters like Jeb Mik(mike) bob jer(Jerry) you get idea because there’s not many 3 letter curse words but you could just check if and set it to ### or you could hook up List-of-Dirty-Naughty-Obscene-and-Otherwise-Bad-Words GitHub to it that’s what I did for this website I’m making where if we type what’s in that list it replaces it with #####

You could do something like the animal crossing new horizons title system where you can choose words to put together to create a cool title thing.
Like you have a list of words and you just mix and match them till you have something you like.
You would end up with what looks like auto generated gamertags with a touch of personality.

@richard I feel like there should be a new section in the forums that has all the best games on the forums. There’s a ton of of really high quality games, but many get lost to time, and there’s no way to search for them without prior knowledge. They’d also be great example projects to new users. We could have the community nominate games for that page

Someone could make a topic for best games based on submissions (we could get those from Chatting Area), and maybe keep updating it once a year or so… might actually do that…

nah but then THAT topic could get buried under all the other ones, it’d be better to just have a dedicated section

we need a decent rotation system that doesnt warp ur images.

Not easy in pixel art. There are a few algorithms I’ve seen floating around but you can research a few and try making them to see if they work. The main issue is that the good ones (RotSprite) are slowwww which makes it hard to make real time rotations with them, especially with limited hardware capabilities like in MakeCode.
