I’m currently suffering a dilemma and I’m considering using Odin over Rust.

I was hoping for friendly and positively constructive assessments of which language and why from anyone who wishes to answer?

    One of my acquaintances has actually made a small game in Odin (Cat and Onion) and after that written a book about the language (Understanding the Odin Programming Language). I don’t know much about Odin myself but from what I’ve gathered there isn’t that much quality documentation or that many good tutorials etc. so it can be a bit hard to get in to the language, which is why he decided to write the book.

      Cat & Odin looks cute. Thanks for letting us know it’s written in Onion.
