the project source is actually public on glitch
but, i mean, if u know Javascript pretty well and are willing to help out, I can create a github repo

Cool! You should add lists and dictionaries.

The math game I'm trying to make doesn't work, but I don't know if I did something wrong or there is a glitch.
Code:
ask What is 1+1? as answer
ask What is 9x9? as answer3
ask What about 12x6? as answer4
ask You cant use a calculator, what is 30x9? as answer5
ask Hmmm… 99 divided by 4.5? as answer6
if answer = 2 and answer3 = 81 and answer4 = 72 and answer5 = 270 and answer6 = 22
out “That is correct!”
end

what is the error you are receiving?

I've been trying to make a quine, but I've run into some problems. Here's a list of what I think should be added:

Escaping brackets like \{ and \}
Variable concatenation (concat <value1> <value2> as <variable>)
Outputting without a new line (outl, maybe?)
Functions

might add all of these tomorrow with the bugfix
but
you can already concat variables and add curlybrackets like this:

set a as {
set b as }
out {a}{b}

yeah, that was a double demonstration

I'm having a bit of trouble with the input. This is the code that I put into it=

 ask <Original Suggestion?> as <OG>

if answer = 2 and answer3 = 81 and answer4 = 72 and answer5 = 270 and answer6 = 22
out “That is correct!”
end

i was trying to debug the interpreter all this time until i realised
the if function is literally trying to see if the word “answer” is the number “2”
not if the variable answer is the number “2”
not a bug with the interpreter, you just have to put them inside curly brackets for them to be considered variables:

ask What is 1+1? as answer
ask What is 9x9? as answer3
ask What about 12x6? as answer4
ask You cant use a calculator, what is 30x9? as answer5
ask Hmmm... 99 divided by 4.5? as answer6
if {answer} = 2 and {answer3} = 81 and {answer4} = 72 and {answer5} = 270 and {answer6} = 22
out "That is correct!"
end

works perfectly

edit: also you can get creative with showing an “incorrect” message
since i havent added the “else” function yet

ask What is 1+1? as answer
ask What is 9x9? as answer3
ask What about 12x6? as answer4
ask You cant use a calculator, what is 30x9? as answer5
ask Hmmm... 99 divided by 4.5? as answer6

def result as That is incorrect!
if {answer} = 2 and {answer3} = 81 and {answer4} = 72 and {answer5} = 270 and {answer6} = 22
def result as "That is correct!"
end

out {result}

Added the first 3,
the functions will be a bit more tricky because currently, all blocks cannot be nested, so i'd focus on that before adding anything new

This is really cool, I haven't made programs with it because I'm on mobile, but this seems promising! One thing, maybe use something like set {} to {} instead of set as, because I'm pretty much every programming language, you use a syntax of variable = value… Maybe have it detect what is the variable and what is the value by detecting if it uses “as” or “to”?

documentation please?
