I've toyed with Ebiten. It's wonderful. Here are some pain points:

- I've had trouble with sub-texture bleeding requiring me to add paddings between my texture atlas. This could probably also be resolved by not having my own texture atlas and loading each texture separatedly but I like my atlas.

- If you like class inheritance to compose hierarchy of objects, Go isn't well suited. This can be good or bad depending on how you like to architecture.

What I love about Ebiten and Go is the fast compilation times which makes the edit-compile-run feedback loop short and sweet.
