I might try it out later if I can find some time to spin up a Linux VM.
I also find it rather amusing that there are two high-level BASIC variants both targeting gaming, and both with astronomy-related names. MoonBasic seems to have gained a bit more traction likely because it’s open source.
MoonBASIC Show HN Post from a month ago:
For the site URL: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/url-analysis/u-043c8bb6b294a9...
And after download/unzipping and running it against the setup exe itself: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file-analysis/NzcxMzNlM2VkMDI...
The only mark that comes up is "Suspicious.low.ml.score" in Trapmine. Given it's telling me absolutely nothing about what that even means, and given the name of the 'hit' seemingly to say it's some low confidence machine learning hit, not sure what to do about that. VirusTotal Jujubox also shows clean (as expected) - the rest should complete soon.
Also I checked out MoonBasic, it's a cool project but it looks like it has a very different target/goal than I do as far as language/syntax and game types go - so while there is some minor overlap, I think we are operating in two fundamentally different spaces.
(edit) Update: It finished running through the sandbox. I see some warnings that seem related to the fact the IDE is an AOT compiled .net binary. If anyone thinks anything on that list looks incorrect let me know and I'll try to figure out what to do about it.
Update2: From what I can tell, the scarier 'hits' are simply because I'm not signing the windows installer. I've looked into signing installers but best I can see for windows is over a thousand bucks. If anyone knows of a cheaper alternative I'm all ears.
