Think it is more about the language itself and getting people interested enough to contribute to a simple project. Personally i'd never heard of V before and found it interesting to check out. Downloaded prebuilt compiler binary and had a hello world running in a few minutes. Built and played the Tetris example a few minutes later.
The project sounds very ambitious and is trying to target many platforms and many use cases.. my worry is it's trying to do too much too soon. Still, seems well worth keeping an eye on.
