D is really cool and makes a good candidate for developing a

For some time I have been seeing some cool game engine being
developed in the DUB repo. What more is happening? I don't
see derelictSDl and derelictSFML activities much. Whatup?
GC's up.
Minecraft, written in java which has a GC does perfectly fine.
A GC is not a reason a game cannot be developed.
Look at how many browser-based games there are, which use a GC
somewhere from the interpreted Flash or JS.
Minecraft is a dog though ... I always have to kill my kids
ongoing game
if I ever want to do any real work on the same machine.
It's a dog because Java is a dog. But that's not because of the
GC.
It's not really that bad either, I can open up Minecraft at any
time and have it sit in the background quietly using ~800Mb ram
and virtually no cpu time.
Either your kid has tons of mods in their Minecraft or your
computer is a bit dated.
