It builds upon OpenGL and SDL to provide a fun, hackable > environment for writing games. Think of it like Emacs but for games. > Unlike traditional game engines which focus on imperative > object-oriented programming with mutable data, Sly exposes a functional > interface and promotes the use of persistent, immutable data structures. > > The REPL takes center stage in Sly, as it should. Rather than the > traditional edit, compile, restart cycle of game development, games > written in Sly can be easily changed at runtime thanks to the integrated > REPL server. To develop a game with Sly, you start with a blank screen, > connect to the REPL server, and iteratively build the game model and > interactive features. Using Emacs + Geiser for this is a joy, BTW. > > Video game state changes are very asynchronous which manifests in most > game engines as a collection of event-based callback functions, or > "callback hell" for short.

"Signals" are > used to represent time-varying values, and hackers can use analogs of > the usual functional friends (map, fold, filter, etc.) to transform > signal values with respect to time. The result is a more declarative > program that automatically responds to state changes. > > This initial alpha release of Sly features many example programs > (found in the 'examples' directory) to show off basic features.
