Reception

The film did reasonably well at the box office.[3]

gollark: Haskell→Lua compilation through gluing together bits of your projects, then?
gollark: GHCJS produced *horribly* sized output during my brief testing.
gollark: I imagine it would produce larger Lua files than CC likes.
gollark: Bad idea #12501285981: "run" Haskell "in" CC by running a Haskell program on some remote server somewhere and having it send commands to an ingame CC computer and receive info back.
gollark: Have you tried using it?
