Cool, it's nice to see games like this continuing to be developed!

Can you double-check that all these inputs are needed at run-time with
`guix gc --references`?

Can it run with qt-5? My understanding is that qt-4 is no longer
supported by upstream and is thus risky from a security perspective.  We
are slowly working to eliminate dependencies on qt-4 in Guix.

If it can't use qt-5, I guess it's okay, with a friendly bug report to
upstream :)

If it can use qt-5, then it can take advantage of the modularization
that Efraim has been working on.
