Unfortunately the choice of ć as the name dominates much of the
reddit discussion. I just had to mention it, because I too
thought there was a glitch concerning the "c". Also unfortunate
is that it's written in C# and requires acrobatics to run on a
Linux machine, yet it ironically aims to be for writing "very
portable programming libraries". I'm left scratching my head ...

I was pleased to see that there is a language with non-english
name, but I share opinion with most of reddit crowd that
single-letter name such as Ć (and even D!) is a bad choice for
naming a language. It's just not easily searchable!
Interestingly, for a school project I've developed a tiny
language and stack-based VM for it called Ћ (that's a cyrillic Ć)
and just for fun I've also made all keywords cyrilic :D (it was
c-like of course, hence the name)
