    • Package Flags

      add-default-compiler-flags
       (on by default)

      Add default set of compiler flags.

      internal-wires
       (off by default)

      Instead of an external wires dependency, use an internal implementation sufficient for this package. Useful since as of now, the latest version on Hackage is not up-to-date with the latest versions of its dependencies, so it would not build with this project without a manually modified local build of this external dependency.

Prototype

Currently this project only implements basic parts of the game: minimal GUI, basic physics, and a basic renderer. Much of the game is currently unimplemented (audio, goals, complete moving body physics, gameplay mechanics, etc.), but this project still serves as a useful example of a purely functional FRP application. Currently the physics has a few bugs.

Immutaball

Immutaball is a rewrite of Neverball in Haskell. It is useful for gaming and studying a purely functional FRP application. It does not use IO except for interfacing with external dependencies and ‘base’/‘haskell2010’ IO primitives like writing to a file (including concurrent evaluation).
