Yes you can. Java works fine for even kinda high end 3d graphics, not many people do it though. The biggest thing in java gamedev is avoiding GC pauses.

  I would think that with the newer GCs (like Shenandoah) for Java, the GC pause thing might become a non-issue soon enough. Not sure that works for Clojure though.

    Hmm, how would a different GC _not_ work for a different JVM language (Clojure or Jython, or whatever)?
    • tombert 7y ago
      I kind of misspoke; Clojure has had difficulties in past supporting the latest versions of the JVM; it's possible that it works ok with Shenandoah...admittedly I haven't tried it yet.

      Allocation patterns. Languages like Clojure stress more the GC.
