Nice post!
I am sharing a similar experience to you.
When it comes to making games I have no interest other than to use C. I am glad and appreciate that I have C skills... even if they are "useless" when in a web or app development role (C#, PHP, etc) --- however, when I tried Odin about 6 months ago (maybe more) I have found my "Better C"
I am one of these people that prefer to have a "one language for all" ... generally speaking. As much as I love C, I know it is not the best for everything. Odin, on the other hand, is a serious contender for this.
Not only am I making a game in Odin (converted away from C99) - I am also creating a Broker Message library and Website in Odin as well.
The Broker system is a rewrite of a C# Windows Service I created, which sends messages and distributes them. For the website, using htmx for the frontend!
Once I finish one of my jobs (I have two) -- I am going to have more time for Odin and these projects. Looking forward to it.
