Hi Gabriel,
Sorry for the long delay!

We need full sentences and, as per the FSDG, we won’t advertise the
“PRO” version (which is non-free I guess?) here. So instead I propose
this:
(description
"TIC-80 is a fantasy computer for making, playing and sharing tiny games.
There are built-in tools for development: code, sprites, maps, sound editors
and the command line, which is enough to create a mini retro game. At the
exit you will get a cartridge file, which can be stored and played on the
website.")
Another issue: the code bundles quite a few libraries. We should remove
them in a snippet and use the corresponding packages instead. Here’s
what I see in the log:

‘sokol’ and ‘wren’ are apparently not packaged yet in Guix. As a first
step, you could remove everything but these two libraries, leaving a
FIXME about them.
Could you send an updated patch?
Thanks,
Ludo’.
