Lobster, a new programming language, just released.Lobster ( http://strlen.com/lobster ) has been released on GitHub ( https://github.com/aardappel/lobster ). It is a language that could be general purpose, but currently is specifically targeting game programming, with built-in support for OpenGL / SDL / FreeType. The language looks similar to Python at first glance, but really is its own blend of fun features: a syntax centering around making higher order functions & function values look & function as much as possible like built-in control structures (terse, and with non-local returns), coroutines, multi-methods, vector operations, optional types, optional immutability. The design did not have any lofty goals of programming language research or innovation, instead, it indulges in simply being a fun language for the typical code written in it (small-medium games).
