As soon as I saw the game, I thought about Gambit-C. I'm currently following a compiler class with its author.

Is this an online source? I would love to see a compiler course by someone like Marc Feeley!

No, it's at the Université de Montréal.

Does the course have a public page for us to see?

I did some digging before I ask chm originally, here is what I found:

There are some lecture notes for the compiler class in French: http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~feeley/cours/ift3065-ift6232/ Chrome automatically translated that resource for me.

Here is Feely giving a talk about a Scheme to javascript compiler: http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~boucherd/mslug/meetings/2004102...

chm: Lucky... it would be awesome to do a compiler class in Scheme! Could you please tell Feely that some people on Hacker News would be thrilled if he made his lectures available online?

OK, I will mention it to him. Some of the suggested readings were from PG, so I'm sure he knows HN.
