Greetings Ada NG,
I'm new to Ada but have 15+ years background in C/C++ and x86
assembly. I skipped Pascal and Java(yuk)and have used the usual
scripting languages, Perl, Python, Tcl/Tk, etc...
I'm bored with coding C/C++ and would like to try something new... 8^)
Anyway, I'm really intrigued by Ada and I'd like to "go out on a
limb" and see how Ada measures up to C/C++ for game development. I'm
thinking about both the 2D and 3D regimes, such as an isometric style
game in 2D and a FPS for 3D.
You don't see Ada mentioned anywhere (that I know of) in game
development circles. Is there a specific reason why?
I'd like to hear from any in this NG with an opinion or insight on the
subject. Thx!
