I've used both makecode arcade and scratch, and I must admit that scratch is the way to go if you are a little kid trying to learn how to code, but makecode arcade teaches more practical coding that you would actually use in a job kinda. Despite its limitations I've even been able to make complex 3d games with makecode arcade pretty easily too

tip: to remove the error you needed to select the enemy sprite not my sprite

Make code is more similar to actual code so if you want learn more after scratch, makecode is a good transition to JavaScript.

glad I’m not the only person who knows makecode arcade

tip: to make your sprite move without having to write a long script, go to Controller > Single Player and find the "move mySprite with buttons" block. when you put it in your script, you can control your sprite with the arrow keys, and you can also change the speed of the sprite by clicking the plus button.

make code is more learning and scratch is more having fun while doing it

Yet they still have scratch on the microsoft store after this 💀

I like how despite the move player with button being in his face multiple times, he somehow missed it, lmao

I used this ALOT a while ago before I moved to scratch

1:06 Why does that actually sound good?

I know a bit of music theory so I can explain. There isn't a way to write flats or sharps on their music maker, so you're writing all white notes. All white notes is part of the C Major scale, resulting in a happy sound.

You could also start from A to result in the A Minor natural scale.

First time i went through this exact struggle XD!
I found out about this engine cause i got a crash
course on it. I got my own Gameboy i could put my games on and play!
Right when i learned how to code with it  i realized i cant publish my games
so i moved back to scratch and forgot how to use it!

Me screaming: "MOVING IS IN "THE MOVE MY SPRITE WITH 'BUTTONS'""

Finally you're back!!!

Watching him try to find the controller is killing me

I was screaming the entire time, "MOVING IS LITTERALY ONE BLOCK JUST OPEN THE CONTROLLER DRAWER!!!"

As a ride or die makeCode user, this hurts my brain lol.

buddy really getting stuck on the most easy game ever i built a gun in 10 seconds

This is actually so much better then scratch for actually learning to code

this is where i started, and im still starting. just in gamemaker

Hi mate if you go into the controller category you can find a block that moves your sprite you do not need all of that code
