This is fantastic! As someone who's used PICO-8 in after-school STEM enrichment classes (and has evaluated uxn), one of the frustrations that my students have always had is easy I/O and persisting state -- for saving/loading game progress and settings, of course. The clipboard and registry devices seem like a good fit.

I hope you stick with this!

Thank you, that means a lot!

I've got plans for tooling in the future that will make Bedrock more accessible to people who are learning to program, like a high-level language that runs on Bedrock and a graphical debugger for visually clicking around and changing the internal state as your program runs.
