"Cakelisp is a metaprogrammable, hot-reloadable, non-garbage-collected language ideal for high performance, iteratively-developed programs (especially games). It is a transpiler which generates C/C++ from an S-expression syntax. Cakelisp takes some inspiration from Lisp, but is not compatible and does not aspire to become 'a Lisp'."
How about https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/labels/I-unsound? I think everyone saying Rust is "high quality" or whatever is delusional until there are zero bugs on their GitHub. I also don't want to know about your 3 year old's ugly drawings.

Also look into Gamelisp's state machines which are an awesome way of modeling stateful in-game objects. Cakelisp is another cool language made specifically for gamedev.

I wrote a language primarily to make that sort of feature easy to create, via compile time code generation and execution. See Cakelisp.
