   I didn't expect people to comment on the game itself... It is indeed quite simple at the moment. Maybe your opportunity to get your feet wet with Rust by improving the game logic?

   Awesome! Happy to see the WASM backend is getting more and more attention

   Never heard of DataView before, thanks! This is the first time I do something "low level" in Javascript, so there is probably a lot that could be improved. BTW, here is an example passing arrays between Javascript and Rust: https

   Since WASM in its current state is meant as a compilation target for C, it is usually possible to do things "the C way". For instance, you can allocate a buffer on the Javascript side and pass a pointer to the Rust side, which the

   I haven't measured anything :P Regarding your suggestion, I cannot pass an object to Javascript, because from the perspective of the browser I am writing C. An alternative would be to have each function take a pointer to the object, bu

    Considering dereferencing a pointer after doing some arithmetic on it can only be done within unsafe blocks, I would say you are at least warned about it. But it will happily compile.

    Thanks for the course! I have a question unrelated to the contents: Why did you choose to release it for free? I guess you spent a lot of time preparing it, so I assume there must be some kind of (non-monetary?) benefit you expect to get fr

    Thanks for the writeup! I had a hard time figuring out how to compile C++ to WebAssembly a couple of weeks ago and finally gave up given the lack of maturity of the implementation. I am sure this will help more people get interested in WebA
