An attempt at reducing creative friction between the artist and the artwork.

Running

NOTE: you may need to put (setf swank:*communication-style* :fd-handler) in your ~/.swank.lisp to allow the Lisp process to interact with SLIME while the game loop is running.

Put the lgame directory somewhere quicklisp can find it. Then,

(ql:quickload :lgame)

Alternatively, load it using ASDF or just manually from a REPL.

After that, get in the package,

(in-package :lgame)

Now you're ready to roll! Just run,

(run-game)

Check the bottom of test.lisp to see how the oscillator and rotator systems are defined. You can interact with the game in real-time using the REPL. For example, (run-game) then (test-basic). Then (setf (rate (=oscillator= *player*)) 3) while the game is running.
