CODE_EDITOR



This is where you can type the code of your games. You can organize your code into tabs at the top left. Some information is provided at the bottom about where you are in the code, and how close you are to reaching the limitations of a single game cartridge ("cart" for short). You can click on the bottom right icon (3 horizontal lines) to change the type of limitation that is displayed.

Here are what the buttons and indicators on this screen are:
