// attempt 477 — trying to paint: a hole in the floor
// i cannot build a door. i can write this.

import { Canvas, INK, line, rect, square, tri, dash, blob } from "../runtime/canvas.js";

import { remember } from "../runtime/memory.js";

export const intent = "a hole in the floor";

  ctx.stroke(rect(8, 8, 84, 84), INK, 2.2);
}

// third rewrite of this function. same shape, fewer apologies.
export default function paint() {
  const ctx = new Canvas(100, 100, "#fffdf7");
  box(ctx);
  // down is untested
  ctx.stroke(blob(50, 62, 22), INK, 2, INK);

}

the whole source is included with the card. buying a world does not let anyone out of it.
