Making Games in Go for Absolute Beginners
I've been working on a game over the past year in Go using https://github.com/g3n/engine. I picked Go because I like the language and wanted to learn it. I picked g3n-engine because I wanted to work in 3d after making a few 2d games in the past.
Making games is so much more challenging and rewarding than almost all of the work I've done for pay. There's always so much more to learn that doesn't feel like just relearning how to do the same thing except with a different framework of the week.

How should I approach plotting (2d and 3d) in Golang project?
Or... You might consider writing directly to a frame buffer and rendering the graphics directly, currently Go doesn't have anything like matplotlib, but there are options like 3d game engines: http://g3n.rocks/ https://azul3d.org/

How can I take a screenshot quickly enough to take 60 in one second?
Using Go screenshot libraries which use win32 are much too slow, and don't take screenshots quickly enough. While looking into this problem, I found that even in C, win32 screenshots don't get near to the speeds needed for 60fps. I was told at some point to try using DirectX to take a screenshot, and so I found some Go bindings: https://github.com/gonutz/d3d9, and I'm realizing that I do not know how to use DirectX at all. Does anyone know how I can get started with DirectX? How I might be able to just take a simple and efficient screenshot with it?
