Does Rust have the libraries, frameworks, engines, and communities for developing games? In my opinion, development of any software, whether it's a REST API or a AAA 3D game, isn't just about the language but is actually about 10 other things.
- guu 8y agoIf you want to make a 3D game you can get started much quicker by using an existing engine like Unity and C#. If you’re interested in building a game engine then C++ will have the most resources.
- movedx 8y agoThat's what I'm thinking, yes.
- suby 8y agoI feel that it has a good and growing game dev community, but all the tools and engines need more time in development. There are a few game engines and frameworks being built with rust, but (someone correct me if im wrong) they all either dont have a stable api or have bugs which i wouldnt want to have in production. I do think Rust is an ideal languange to build games in though. It just needs some time. See http://arewegameyet.com http://arewegameyet.com
