Hi Brian, thanks for creating Roy, it's very cool! I've underlined LiveScript functional features in this blog post, but like JavaScript, LiveScript also supports imperative and object-oriented programming. One could port a JavaScript program to LiveScript with relative ease, as it's just syntax changes (with features added on top). I do not think that would be possible in Roy. For some people that's fine, but for my own projects I would prefer using something that maps more closely to JavaScript.
