Why Go?

• Simple, readable, performant code.
• Compiles to native executables. Simplifies sharing games, and doesn't rely on just-in-time compilation.
• Garbage collection is very low latency, compared to Java or C# which focus on throughput.
• First-class support for concurrency, memory allocation, and unit testing.
