Hey, after sitting through 45 minutes of Installing Racket (for sludge https://cloudrac3r.itch.io/sludge-fiction, which worked!) and guile chickadee being unported I'm kinda impatient. Could we aggregate the common lisp games in a thread here?

There is no tl;dr. There are three tables with different elisp filters. Visit the devlog.

I found the above table hard to read. What I really wanted to know was the language breakdown in raw count and percentage form. So, I took the data above and did my own quick calculation:

languageentries% (rounded)
guile1531
fennel1021
clojure
510
cl510
racket48
elisp48
s736
kawa1
2
owl12

The various Schemes are all significantly different enough to be considered their own languages.

Um, sorry "great logs" (WRT "Square Meal")? What problem are you describing? Thanks!

Submitted

Oh sorry I was being tongue in cheek. I meant your writing was a remarkable feature of your game, but the only field I had given myself  was named 'problems'. Sorry about that!

My peertube server was down over the weekend so I didn't get to livestream any more games and now we're basically out of time too sorry. Sorry sorry sorry.

Oh hey, no problem at all, was just confused. I thought you might have meant that I had too much logging turned on but when I checked that didn't seem to be it. My goal with this game jam is to come back with something that you can actually play. Maybe next time!

Were the sounds in your game original?

Check the credits for links, but basically Incompetech and OpenGameArt. I trimmed "Gary"'s gun handling noises down to get that nice solid "click", but didn't have to do anything else to it. It worked perfectly! (In my opinion.)

Well I caved and ran a modern web browser to play it, and it was a fun bouncy experience

Appreciate you trying it out! Hopefully the measures required were not excessively heroic... ; - )
