This is my 3D engine on GitHub. The MakeCode version had a 100x100 screen (10,000 pixels), this has a 320x240 screen (76,800 pixels), which has 7.68 times more pixels. the other one ran at 6 fps on my Chromebook. This ran at 60. The code is mostly the same. The raycasting and play physics are the most expensive parts, and they were not changed. Mostly the controls and main loop to fit on js. This is the original project.

no it is not. If I do this in js:

function add(a, b) { return a + b }
console.log(add)

in js, it should output:

add(a, b) { return a + b }

in makecode, I do this:

function add (a: number, b: number) { return a + b }
console.log(add)

it outputs:

function add__P4448(s) {
let r0 = s.r0, step = s.pc;
s.pc = -1;
while (true) {
if (yieldSteps-- < 0 && maybeYield(s, step, r0) || runtime !== pxsim.runtime) return null;
switch (step) {
case 0:
if (s.lambdaArgs) {
s.arg0 = (s.lambdaArgs[0]);
s.arg1 = (s.lambdaArgs[1]);
s.lambdaArgs = null;
}
r0 = (s.arg0 + s.arg1);
return leave(s, r0)
default: oops()
} } }

that is what makecode compiles your code into. cleaned up, it looks like:

function add__P4448(s) {
    let r0 = s.r0, step = s.pc;
    s.pc = -1;
    while (true) {
        if (yieldSteps-- < 0 && maybeYield(s, step, r0) || runtime !== pxsim.runtime) return null;
        switch (step) {
            case 0:
                if (s.lambdaArgs) {
                    s.arg0 = (s.lambdaArgs[0]);
                    s.arg1 = (s.lambdaArgs[1]);
                    s.lambdaArgs = null;
                }
                r0 = (s.arg0 + s.arg1);
                return leave(s, r0)
            default: oops()
        }
    }
}
