@cwebber only jam participants can rate entries but YES to all those other things!

And of course, if you were wondering, why yes, this was written using Guile Hoot gitlab.com/spritely/guile-hoot

And of course it's free software, you can go get it and compile it right now if you like! git.dthompson.us/autumn-lisp-g

@cwebber @dthompson does that include nightly *mobile* browsers?

(oh wait, I uninstalled FF Nightly Mobile recently due to spurious daily updates. Let me reinstall and check for you)

Edit: it does if you use an external bluetooth keyboard!

dave

@vanderZwan @cwebber it might, not sure, but I didn't have time to add touch screen controls so itch.io doesn't allow play on mobile.

Job

@dthompson @cwebber it worked once I connected my bluetooth keyboard :). Music worked too. Maybe a bit sluggish but that's probably mostly my phone.

(it also didn't fit-to-screen properly in portrait mode though, but it's a jam game so who cares?)

dave

@vanderZwan @cwebber wow I'm glad it mostly works because I didn't test mobile *at all*. thanks for trying it!

Job

@dthompson @cwebber reflects well on both your coding skills and Hoot as a platform then!

@cwebber @dthompson does it have to be nightly because of wasm-gc?

dave

@plexus @cwebber yup, haven't checked in a bit but last I checked Chrome 119 and Firefox 120 haven't reached stable release
