We're building the same tower defense game in multiple languages — starting with Odin, then C, then C++ — to compare what each language is actually like for game development.

This isn't a benchmark blog. We're documenting ergonomics, tooling, bugs, and the feeling of working in each language day to day.

More posts in this series coming soon.
