BUMP

This is INSANE! But unfortunately, I don't really understand how to use it

At the moment this looks like an example of a really, really impressive project which no-one understands how to use. You need to make sure that people can instantly understand how to input and run Javascript code in order to see the results. Right now I can't get it to do anything, which is a real shame

This is actually quite a common problem with programming in general: as a coder, you can spend ages making the most beautiful program/game/platform/OS/library/language/whatever, but no-one else understands how it's supposed to work (and they probably won't spend much time trying, either). Successful projects are easy to understand and user-friendly.

Your instructions, notes and linked forum thread all explain what the engine does, but they don't tell me how to actually use it (shift+esc doesn't seem to do anything?). It's well worth taking an extra half hour to explain it to us

So… I'll have to make some tutorials.

Bump!

Is esc+shift to run the project or to run the javascript?
