Bevy: A game engine built in Rust

Rust while nice still has to catch up with 30 years ecosystem of tooling.

Many game studios won't bother using it if it doesn't come on the console vendors devkit, just like it happened with C, C++, or middleware like Unreal and Unity.

True.

But it also doesn't have to put up with 30 years of legacy cruft.

Don't you want Rust to still be around 30 years from now?

Sure, but with the cruft of the next 30 years, and not the cruft of the last 30 years

Thing is, where some see cruft, others see infrastructure ready to use today.
