I hope rust community gets more interested in openfl. There's some good libraries already, opengl support, vulkan, there's ggez which mimics the LOVE api, but OpenFL is a fully equipped kitchen sink that a lot of multimedia developers are already familiar with, or used to be.

Congrats to OpenFL team! Fantastic work, inspiring dedication!

And go haxe! Haxe is cool too!

A random cool thing using Haxe I ran into recently: http://armory3d.org/ "Armory is an open-source 3D game engine with full Blender integration"
Armory is super cool. It's probably the flagship application for Kha (another Haxe framework), and given the death of Blender game engine, seems a likely replacement in the Blender ecosystem.
Gosh, I want to spend some time with rust and ggez, and then some guy shows me this awesome haxe engine!

I hadnt seen this!

That's a pretty high-powered kit though, it's got console support, it's got volumetric lighting, all sorts of cool optimizations, wow! Where have they been hiding it?!

Thanks for showing me this!

What I love about haxe is how cool it seemed when it first came out and how cool it still seems today.
