I had a look at Loci, more specifically the language goals[1]:

I've been skimming through the docs and found one mention of D:

It seems to me that Loci is not a very "inspired" language
meaning that it doesn't take inspiration from many other
languages. The docs only ever refer to some classic mainstream
languages including C++, Obj-C, Java, C#, with a hint of D.
There are a few nice aspects such as modules, algebraic types,
tuples, and concepts. But then I feel like it takes too much
from C++ and mimics Java-esque OOP and concepts. I'm not saying
these are bad things but there isn't much that makes Loci stand
out as a programming language.
Nim is much more interesting a.
