Welcome to the C community!

C is quirky, flawed, and an enormous success.
... When I read commentary about suggestions for where C should go, I often think back and give thanks that it wasn't developed under the advice of a worldwide crowd.
... The only way to learn a new programming language is by writing programs in it.

Oh they're still using C under the hood whether rustaceans like it or not - games need performance.

More likely c++

Also rust would give you similar performance and there are game frameworks for it.
