I agree here, and I think Icaza is just motivated to make something for himself, because as he explained in the talk, he loves Apple products and APIs. Swift cross-platform would be a great thing.. I see that The Browser Company is using it

Yes and here is a really great talk from Miguel de Icaza about some of the history of adding C# to game engines, and why he's excited about using Swift in Godot because he claims that Swift's reference counting avoids the issues o

Your chapter on ECS in _Game_Programming_Patterns_ fueled my own obsession with the power of such a design, so you could be partly responsible ;). I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about how to incorporate Data Oriented Design, SoA and ECS

I think the killer feature of Mojo is that it's basically syntax sugar for MLIR, which is a new "mid level IR" for the LLVM project, and many 'dialects' have been added that can target specialized transformations fo

It depends on what your goals are. If you pick Rust for your product be ready to roll up your sleeves and contribute to the crates you are depending on. IMO your investment is worth it because developing in Rust is a delight and when it wor
