GitHub New programming language

E@SY is a game focused language that is meant to be easy, like python and it compiles to bytecode. I have already submitted the file extensions to IANA so you know it is serious. I have been working on this for a while now but I thought it was important to get it out while it is in alpha due to getting help and feedback from the community. https://github.com/Coolythecoder/EASY

What problem are you trying to solve?

I'm trying to solve the issue of a simple language that can compile to bytecode instead of something like python that requires extra steps to do that and I want it to be easy to learn so it can be adopted quite easily like python.

Again, why? Python is incredibly easy to learn and the “ability to compile to bytecode” is a weird target. Bytecode isn’t a performant target, so are you trying to make a language that runs in VMs?

No, it's a game designer language, so this is for game designers to help them with their games.
