3D graphics library
Fair enough! There are Go bindings for sdl here, and bindings for RayLib here. Beyond that, everything go game-related that I know of is a game engine.

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?
