Have you ever wanted to make a rad title screen with awesome fonts and outlines and shadows and stuff?

Well, you should try https://arcade-font-renderer.jacobcarpenter.com/

arcade font renderer makes it easy to render some text in a custom font into a MakeCode Arcade compatible image format.

Step 1: Make your awesome title—pick fonts; mess with colors and text effects; etc
Step 2: Find the Copy Image Data button (it’s either right below the picture in two-column mode, or at the bottom of the page in single-column mode) and click it
Step 3: Go to your game and make an image big enough for your text—the Set background image to [image] is a handy block for this…
Step 4: Open the image editor and Ctrl+V (or Cmd+V on Mac)!

Boom! Your sweet-lookin’ text should be pasted in, ready for you to polish up in the image editor.

If Google fonts doesn’t have what you want, you can switch to Local fonts and enter the name of a font you already have installed.

Have fun and keep making!
