Go, C#, Python, JavaScript.
(some) Knowledge in compilers, interpreters, games, and a little bit of 3D graphics.

Having fun on my series Make In A Day, which is where I use Golang to implement well-known software.

Multiplayer game, coming soon hopefully.
DOOM engine, those dang variable height ceilings.

I would love to hear any langauge design ideas (: Also, send over any Make In A Day challenge ideas.
