The power of Ada has been vividly shown in many areas of application
including the aerospace industry. I personally think that Ada is great
for everything including games and whichever games you want them to be
in Ada. My AdaOthello has been a great help to teach Ada and GtkAda at
least in my company, although the game is not "hi-tech" looking.

Why not pick one and start developing? You will find it fun to do and
stick to it. :)
