I don't have a mac, let alone a silicon one, so I can't test on it (I also have no patience for Apple's BS). However, it should work. At least SBCL itself runs, and Trial is mostly…

Because, as you guessed, no implementation other than SBCL comes close to the performance needed.

That's what they claim, but ultimately it's their thing, so they do with it whatever they like.

I specifically talk about the fast evaluator for SBCL. But even without that contrib, SBCL does have another evaluator as well that's used in very specific circumstances.

Aw, thank you. Happy hacking!

It does have a HID keyboard API, but typically you're expected to present an on-screen keyboard.

The OS can do it, and some Nintendo titles on the Switch do use this capability, but I have talked to Nintendo directly about using it, and it's a hard No. I can't even use the JIT…

Yes, it's also open source: https://github.com/shirakumo/kandria My current unannounced project is a lot more ambitious still, being a 3D hack & slash action game. I post updates a…

You cannot publish games with homebrew, it has to use the official SDK. Besides that, almost nobody has a jailbroken Switch, so it would make it extremely hard to play any games on…

I'm not doing the SBCL parts, that's all Charles' work that I hired him for. My work is the portability bits that Trial relies on to do whatever and the general build architecture …

Thanks! I hope I can continue to do more.

I'd been thinking and brainstorming with friends for ages on what to call it and we couldn't come up with a good name. At one point I was forced to pick something, so I just chose …

Glad you're enjoying it, and remember, don't be ashamed of using the gameplay options should later sections get too frustrating. Hmm, I think the minimising thing might be due to t…

Cool, thanks a lot!

Thanks! Hope you find the time some day. And yes, the assets are the part you need a valid copy for if you want to hack on the game.

Good to hear!

Ha ha, alright. Dig away then :)

Yeah, the open world design is closest to Fallout, I'd say. We had plans to have dynamic faction mechanics like in the old Fallout games, too, but unfortunately that had to be cut …

Very common.

The problem is most likely that I haven't updated the included binaries of libmixed in a while. Building that in itself shouldn't be difficult, but no, there's no way to compile or…

That unfortunately won't be possible. And I'm afraid the Switch is by far not as powerful as one would like.

Thank you very much!

Thank you!

I already have a concept for another game. It'll be more ambitious in some respects and less so in others. Of course I'm continuing to use CL.

Believe me I'd love to have it on Switch but it's a tall order for reasons I can't discuss due to NDAs. It might happen if my finances look well enough. It does run on the Steam De…
