wooo I made my jam week game and player-focused level editor (well, prescription anyway). The jam submission is here: itch.io/jam/autumn-lisp-game-j

But the article/instructions mirror in which itchio did not break my markdown is here: screwlisp.small-web.org/lispga

      Long trek home.

      Puffy and Girl walk across the desolate land. Girl keeps asking Puffy what game he'd like to play along the way:

Girl: "...How about 'Guess which GNU core util I am?'"

Puffy: "No..."

Girl: "'Find the syntax error?'"

Puffy: "No."

Girl: "'REGEX or GLOB?'"

Puffy: "No."

Girl (desperately): "Well, what _do_ you want to play?"

Puffy: "How about 'Execute my command?'"

Girl (ecstatic): "YES! You start!"

Puffy: "x=1; until (( x == 1000 )); do ((x++); done"

Puffy and Girl walk across the desolate land. It is quiet. (Girl is adding up numbers in her head).
