I learned about MakeCode Arcade and all the cool things it can do. I also realized that the jam is about story in a much wider sense than just branching text-based adventures.

WATERLOO COMMUNITY THEATRE | COIN STREET | ICONIC STEPS
PRESENT 'It's Not Me, It's You' and Legacy'. Together in partnership, they have given young people a platform to make creative decisions and share their ideas through drama and film.
It was just amazing how we managed to pull it together in the challenging circumstances and how well the young people responded to the changing nature of the project. The films’ thought-provoking themes tell the story of so many young people’s lived experience and are more important now than ever before.
