Making Games at Runtime with Clojure
Zach Oakes at Clojure/conj 2014
Games are a modern art form, and like other artists, game designers need to experience their work as they create it. This talk will explore the benefits of making games "at runtime". Through both abstract discussion and concrete demonstration, we will see why Clojure is uniquely suited to the task.
