The first time we used D and I managed to learn OpenGL as we went :P The second, we used Python and ran into the speed issue almost immediately. We were using Pygame and were really pretty disappointed with the performance of drawing only a few images to the screen. We're talking 10FPS with a very simple scene and a moving character. Using psyco sped things up appreciably but it was still a bit disappointing. I'm looking to have arclib bound to MiniD by the time the next competition rolls around ;) Yeah, we’ve done a few (much more informal) 24-hour game competitions here at my university.
