MakeCode Arcade 2023 Update @adafruit @msmakecode #adafruit

The MakeCode team posted on their blog about MakeCode Arcade 2023 Updates, and it’s chock full of great stuff.

One of the most exciting updates is the new music editor — the Play Song block, which looks and sounds great and is fun and simple to use! It includes nine different synth voices and a drum kit, can include both bass and treble clefs, and allows for polyphony, varied note lengths, and more. Try it out now!

Other updates include:

  • Multiplayer gaming improvments
  • Kiosk mode for building MakeCode Arcade cabinets with joysticks and buttons
  • Additional color palettes, including more diverse skin tones
  • Code validation
  • Game Over options

Check it all out in MakeCode Arcade, and then try out your games on handheld hardware, such as EdgeBadgePyGamer and PyBadge.
