Golang being a featureful language, it’s support for C bindings & simple concurrency, its a right languge for game development. But not yet. The golang libraries are not matured as of now.

Abstract

Golang being a featureful language, it’s support for C bindings & simple concurrency, its a right languge for game development. But not yet. The golang libraries are not matured as of now. However I think writing a game is an interesting way to learn golang.
This is intended for beginners with some golang knowledge.
We shall use SDL2 go bindings to develop a simple game in the workshop. Would be helpful if attendees: - Know some fundamentals of golang. - bring a laptop with golang installed. (Linux or MacOS preferred.) - bring along open mind.
