Hi,
Noob to Monkey2, first post, I like the IDE. Got hellochipmunk compiling no problemo
– within here :-
C:\Monkey2-v1.1.01\bananas\hellochipmunk
However, my first stab was to open the following file:
hello-world.monkey2
opened the hello-world.monkey2 file (which now appeared in the root of C:\Monkey2-v1.1.01 – it compiled fine.
I’ve literally been playing with Monkey2 for about 10 mins – looking good so far 
Just tried the Conway Life Demo – Sweet 
And.. as for monkeyroids – brilliant fun 
Okay… last edit of my initial post – playniax’s shoot-out demo has some pretty sweet eye candy. Just when I thought my suite of coding choices couldn’t extend much further…. Monkey2 comes along
