Wakanda Forever 30
A small arcade game built in MakeCode, published as an importable extension.
Updated
Context
Block-based environments like MakeCode Arcade are how a lot of people meet programming for the first time, and a finished, playable game is a far better introduction than a tutorial exercise.
Constraint
A project only works as an introduction if the other person can open it, change it, and see the result immediately. Anything that requires a toolchain installation loses the moment.
Contribution
I built a small arcade game in MakeCode and published it so that it runs in the browser and can be imported into the editor directly from its repository.
Approach
The repository is set up as an importable extension, so opening it, editing it, and running it are one step each from the web editor, with nothing to install.
Outcome
A playable game that someone else can take apart, which is the point of it.
Evidence
The public repository holds the project, and the published page runs it in the browser.
