Because retooling and relearning development pipelines (on any level/most teams) for games is a horrifically expensive and time-consuming affair... which are resources not spent on developing any one of the potentially dozen or so game

The new C# unions are not reference-only. The attribute/interface allows implementing custom union types by writing `TryGetValue`-methods instead of a single `object? Value {get;}`. The compiler handles this transparently.

That this is a plausible explanation is... beyond horrifying to me.

Maybe you could use unifont glyphs (drawn as SVGs?) as fallback?

Nah, [BetterFox]( https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox ) still works fine

On the surface level, building/compiling/running, maybe... But properly integrating with a given platform (or hell, version of platform!) is a whole new world of pain. :(

There are quite a lot of successful voxel-based games; see https://voxel.wiki/wiki/projects/ for an incomplete list. Most people think voxel means 'cube' or 'block', but really it just means &q

Perhaps redbean might be of interest? It's a web server with all the batteries included, scripted via lua. https://redbean.dev/

With the help of the voxelgamedev community, I'm maintaining a relatively large listing of such projects over at https://voxel.wiki/wiki/projects/ . Sadly, a lot of projects get abandoned.... :(
