tick-interval-nanos	an integer
tick-delegate	a Game loop delegate
draw-delegate	a Game loop delegate

Outputs

loop	a game-loop

Word description
Constructs a new stopped game-loop object. When started, the game loop will call the tick* method on the tick-delegate every tick-interval-nanos nanoseconds, and draw* on the draw-delegate as frequently as possible. The start-loop and stop-loop words start and stop the game loop.

The <game-loop> word provides a shorthand for initializing a game loop that uses the same object for the tick-delegate and draw-delegate.
