Migrate to Haxe #33

Open top-master opened 3 months ago

top-master commented 3 months ago

I just did star your repo, just as thanks for Nim sample, but I hope not to encourage more waste of your time.

Haxe lang is able to do similar compile to C and JavaScript that Nim is able, but Haxe has already many games ready and built.

Also Open-FL(ASH) library, which allows migrating most .swf games, is written in Haxe as well.

God knows why Haxe has 3 times less stars (6K at time of writting) than Nim (16K).

Nim's current progress is not suited for Game dev projects, but I love that Nim has a self-contained compiler, while Haxe made progress on everything except removing need for OCaml in their compiler.

On second thought, maybe adding support for Nim lang in Unreal Engine would make Nim more preferable.

Since said Haxe games are mostly just 2D.
