<p><a href="https://arcade.makecode.com/">MakeCode Arcade</a> can be a slick way to introduce folks to game development. You write and play games in a browser. The programs can be loaded onto <a href="https://arcade.makecode.com/hardware">little handheld devices</a> like the <a href="https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-pybadge">Adafruit PyBadge</a>.<label for="sn-playoptions" class="margin-toggle sidenote-number"></label>
<input type="checkbox" id="sn-playoptions" class="margin-toggle">
<small class="sidenote">The editor and handheld electronics aren't the only places you can run MakeCode Arcade games. Their <a href="https://arcade.makecode.com/hardware/kiosk">kiosk</a> provides a simple menu interface to select between games, perfect for something like an arcade machine.</small>
</p>
<p>I occasionally run MakeCode Arcade workshops for kids and teens at <a href="https://leonardosbasement.org/">Leonardo’s Basement</a>, and make little demos to show off a feature or a technique.</p>
<p>Even before I was finished, this demo put a big grin on my face.<label for="sn-bouncinglogo" class="margin-toggle sidenote-number"></label>

<small class="sidenote">I was surprised the demo landed as well as it did with the students. They mentioned the episode of US version of <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOtuX0jL85Y">The Office</a> and this (edited, unfortunately) <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8NAlDOCG6g">clip of a bar crowd cheering on the DVD logo</a>.</small>
