Ok, so weird issues.  I've got chickadee installed via guile, but
running the example game isn't working so well.

guix package -I chickadee

address@hidden guile]$ guix package -I chickadee
guile-chickadee 0.2.0   out     
/gnu/store/zzyjhz348rp189gk94p0myk1wiakvmrv-guile-chickadee-0.2.0

address@hidden guile]$ guix package -I chickadee
guile-chickadee 0.2.0   out     
/gnu/store/zzyjhz348rp189gk94p0myk1wiakvmrv-guile-chickadee-0.2.0
address@hidden guile]$ cat chickadee.scm 
#!/usr/bin/guile \
-e main -s
!#

(use-modules (chickadee)
             (chickadee math vector)
             (chickadee render sprite)
             (chickadee render texture))

(define sprite #f)

(define (load)
  (set! sprite (load-image "images/logo.png")))

(define (draw alpha)
  (draw-sprite sprite (vec2 256.0 176.0)))

(add-hook! load-hook load)
(add-hook! draw-hook draw)

(run-game)


address@hidden guile]$ ./chickadee.scm
