+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item Lisp (not Common Lisp) was originally implemented in the early 1960s.
+  \item Really took off in the 1970s and 1980s.
+  \item Lots of differing implementations with their own ideas and features during this time period.
+  \item Common Lisp became an ANSI standard in 1994.
+  \item Historically used primarily for Artificial Intelligence.
+  \item Use drastically lowered after the decline of AI funding when the world realized ``true AI'' was further off than they thought.

+  \item Basically a namespace/module system. Using it may seem similar to clojure or javascript's ES6 modules.
+  \item The way it actually works under the hood is super cool and different from most others.

+  \item Lisp has an excellent CFFI library found at \href{https://common-lisp.net/project/cffi/}{https://common-lisp.net/project/cffi/}. It is in quicklisp.
+  \item The CFFI is used heavily for game development, as OpenGL and other libraries are C.
+  \item Cool library \href{https://github.com/rpav/cl-autowrap}{https://github.com/rpav/cl-autowrap} makes making a new CFFI wrapper super easy.

+  \frametitle{The REPL}
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item The sheer power of the Common Lisp REPL is greater than any other REPL I know of.
+  \item REPL driven development is THE primary paradigm for common lisp (no this is not really at odds with TDD).
+  \item You can do practically anything in the REPL that you could do in a file, all without having to restart your process.
+  \item For a user friendly REPL experience you will want to use Emacs + Slime, Vim + slimv, or one of the few lisp specific IDEs.
+  \item The default command line REPLs for most implementations have a rather bad user experience compared to the above.

+  \item Benevolent leader rpav/oGMo \href{https://github.com/rpav}{https://github.com/rpav}
+  \item Freenode IRC channel \#lispgames
+  \item In progress wiki/site \href{http://lispgames.org}{http://lispgames.org}
+  \item Focused on Common Lisp but all lispers welcome including Scheme, Clojure, and others.

+  \frametitle{Libraries}
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item For the most part if you don't want to use a pre-built engine/framework you probably want to use lispgames glkit which uses cl-sdl2, cl-sdl2kit, and cl-opengl. Find it at \href{https://github.com/lispgames/glkit}{https://github.com/lispgames/glkit}. They are all in quicklisp.
+  \item A cool 2D graphics library called sketch can be found at \href{https://github.com/vydd/sketch}{https://github.com/vydd/sketch}. It is not yet in quicklisp.
+  \item There are a variety of other libraries in various locations, if you are looking for something in particular ask about it on \#lispgames.

+  \frametitle{Game Engines}
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item CEPL by baggers, \href{https://github.com/cbaggers/cepl}{https://github.com/cbaggers/cepl}. Active work in progress.
+  \item CLINCH by warweasle, \href{https://github.com/BradWBeer/CLinch}{https://github.com/BradWBeer/CLinch}. Alpha, should soon be ready as a general purpose engine.
+  \item Xelf by dto (see dto-games on youtube), GPLv3, \href{http://xelf.me/}{http://xelf.me/}. Has been used by dto to create several games.

+  \item I will be running and modifying \href{https://github.com/k-stz/picking-sticks}{https://github.com/k-stz/picking-sticks}.
+  \item You will need a lisp implementation, \href{https://www.quicklisp.org/beta/}{quicklisp}, libsdl2, libfreetype, working OpenGL drivers, and to put \href{https://github.com/rpav/texatl}{https://github.com/rpav/texatl} and \href{https://github.com/rpav/laconic}{https://github.com/rpav/laconic} in \texttildelow/quicklisp/local-projects.
+  \item Unless you've already got most of this setup I would recommend not trying to set this up during my presentation.
