Also you can save a lot of clockcycles if you put @nogc

gc causes unpredictabilities in performance*. With games it tends to be
worst case performance that matters.
I would reccomend using std.experimental.allocator (even if you still use
the default GC backed allocator). This will allow you to swap out your
allocator for a more specialised one as your
I'm in the same boat. I do games. But I love D's syntax and
template power. So I'm doing a full experiment.
Honestly, if D is that big a liability, you'll encounter it long
before it's "too late" to port it to C++.
Last night I had stuttering issues, but I realized there was a

If you do not worry about memory management at all, it will
probably lead to a need to redesign your game. And that's
regardless wh

It depends what kind of game it is and how sloppy your code is in
general.
Every game I have written in D i don't think about it,
