SFML doesn't seem that bad once you get use to the C++ syntax (I never liked how C++ uses :: to separate namespaces). And it seems a lot easier compared to SDL.

I know C++ is bloated already in terms of features, but having built-in setters and getters just like C# would be kind of nice.

I made my decision. I'm using C++ and SFML for my next game. C# is not a bad language in of itself, but I want to avoid MS controlled shit. I realize that using C# (or any .NET/Mono language) is just a ticking time bomb, especially given the direction that Microsoft is going.

IT'S. FUCKING. DONE.
I've finally completed the game. You can download it on my website. It's just a generic shmup. It's nothing special (it was made to practice enemy patterns among other things), but I think I learned a lot working on it.

Packaging .NET programs into self-contained applications creates a huge fucking mess.

I just finished my game. Now, I just need to publish it. Then I have to go back to self-training for my new job.
