Microsoft MakeCode Game Engine

#1
Microsoft MakeCode Game Engine

<div><p>Microsoft MakeCode is a game engine aimed directly at getting people started with game development with an easy to use game engine.&nbsp; MakeCode can be run directly in the browser using <a href="https://arcade.makecode.com/">MakeCode Arcade</a> requiring no login or signup to get started.&nbsp; Programming is done using a Scratch like visual programming language, but at any point in time you can switch over to JavaScript that is being generated.&nbsp;&nbsp; There is also the ability to extend the capabilities of MakeCode with extensions, that can also be written as JavaScript.</p>
<p>In addition there are several simple consoles and projects that can be used to run your generated games, which can also be simply saved and shared in the form of a custom encoded PNG image file.&nbsp; If you are looking to start game development, or are interested in getting a child involved in game development, MakeCode is a great option.</p>
<p>Additionally MakeCode Arcade is an open source project <a href="https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-arcade">available on GitHub</a> under the MIT license, if you wish to contribute or simply run the server locally.</p>
<p>We go hands on and show creation of a simple game in the <a href="https://youtu.be/iEWkWQAXNx0">video</a> below.</p>
