I'd like to come up with some constructive comments, but I find everything so inconsistent and alien to me...
For example, variable declarations use the pattern <colon> <type>, as in
var a: Int32
But literals follow the opposite syntax, as in a = Int32: 42
The return type of a function is introduced by : in func definitions, but by -> in imported func declarations: func foo(a:Int):Int
import func bar(a:Int) -> (Int)
Other construct that I find far from my habits: var w, h, d = 640, 480, 2
instead of the more obvious (for me): var w=640, h=480, d=2
Arguments are passed by ref, not by val. Good luck with recursion!loading story #50334368
The parallel assignment just work mostly like it does in ruby so that doesn't look weird to me (except the need for 'var' in the first place).
Agreed on the rest, though I don't understand what the problem would be with recursion. Is it using reference passing also for primitives like integers?

Agreed.. and what is going on with the `!` syntax? The docs are not exactly clear on the purpose in all cases.
