Interesting article.

At least for Veloren https://veloren.net it seems to work quite well.

Interesting but I think language is loosing it's important. The article agrees that what is really needed is a rust game engine. I looked at the Bevy book. It includes a stability warning and suggests using Godot. After using Godot, I have to say it is a high bar to pass. Granted I didn't try 3D work and my game was a very short project.

It possible to write native code for Godot games in Rust.
