Hey, I came up with a logo for Cboy you could maybe use:

Thanks! Although, we’ve had logos since Cboy 2 (the 3rd Cboy ever)  
And this is Cboy Azure’s logo

In 8211.3, this will be the new start button icon too.  
Nice icon though- also, are you using tilemaps for the GUI? Or something else…?

Nope, using sprites. Not very resource efficient, but a lot more flexible.

well, I ain’t got much but here is a placeholder application (will be changed in the future because it doesn’t have any functionality, it’s litterally just an image:

By what the App looks like, I think its a web browser (due to the visible tabs and search bar)

I use tilemaps because they’re easier to modify and add code for.

Like I said, that app is not functional but the aero frame is!

I just remembered to tell you that you shouldn’t spam the value constantly, just display it in the console when the player requests to see the amount of settings.

That’s the main goal of the Monitor. The Spamming is just for graphs and testing

Also, there is no reason to convert to text and parse back to number, all you could do is save the `length of 'array of all settings'` as a number, and use the `console log value` block - this: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/3/3592e543e1e2815f46624ea2e8628978114f9fe7.png)  
in which you can just set “x” to a string calles "Total settings used: " or something like that and make the 0 to the above mentioned `length of 'array of all settings'`. And that’s about it.
