Sounds interesting. Why choose Brainfuck - has small number of instructions?

Yeah, it has a very small number of instructions and is still Turing Complete. The Brainfuck code gets compiled to bytecode so I guess technically I could have used anything. The underlying VM was created with BF in mind though.
