I'm not being sarcastic at all, and after reading my post again I can't see how it can be read that way. My apologies if my english isn't that good. I'm familiar with piston, and by "making it build on a Pi" - my mistake, I meant make it cross-compile for a Pi. The rest of your examples are quite "it can be done" and not it "should be done". The only thing I can say is - why not organize a game competition around piston? I'm sure Mozilla has the funds. This is what I mean by make it fun and make a game framework. I'm sure that other than piston you could find other Rust game frameworks but i'm sure you can't find one that's as accepted as PyGame or LOVE, and then, Cocos2d-x C++ port is being pitched "for performance", and why can't that be Rust?
