Martha Is Dead is a grim psychological triller about twin sisters, set in Italy at the end of WW2. It’s not about war, however. This game left me with deep emotions no other game could do. Heed the warnings given by authors, though. It may come too disturbing to some people.

A man came to doctor saying he has troubles with pissing his bed in the sleep.

• Everytime in my dream a midget comes and says “let’s pee together”. Then we pee and I wake up in wet bed.
• Well, next time when midget comes, say you’ve already peed. - doctor recommended.

Next night, the man is sleeping and seeing the midget again.

• Let’s pee. - said the migdet.
• I’ve already peed.
• Alright, let poo then.

That boils down to maps. With a few helper functions it’s not a big deal. I can’t remember when I needed to unmarshal JSON into map last time, tho.

I’ve already made this choice. Switched from C++ to Go, and now I never want to touch another language at all. Since I’m not writing kernels or embedded, Go is pretty fast for everything else. Not very popular in gamedev, but that’s just a lack of 3rd party libs, specifically native graphics support.

As for other languages, I can’t justify unnecessary complexity that is generally welcome by those language communities. Go is straight simple yet powerful, and I admire that.
