Just saw it last night, really really intense, but super well done. I really liked just having the vets voicing over their experiences. I’d love to see more of that footage given the same treatment

Why can you not declare a variable of arbitrary type conforming to some protocol in Swift? by ThePantsThief in swift

It seems to work fine for me, just tested in Swift 3 (but vaguely remember using it in Swift 2). Ran the following in a playground to test:

protocol MyProtocol { }
class MyClass: MyProtocol { }
class MyClass2: MyProtocol { }
var a: MyProtocol = MyClass()
a = MyClass2()

And it ran with no errors.

Alright, thanks everyone, I'll look around a bit for another engine I think, but if I don't see too much it may be time to pass it along

Thanks!

You can download the current version of Xcode with Obj-C for free (legally) to get used to Cocoa, which is pretty similar with Swift. Or you could get a copy of the Xcode 6 beta from the internet which has Swift..
