A long time I ago I used to make multi-agent artificial life simulations in a system called Swarm, which was in Objective C:

I don't remember much, just that it was a nice language, well fitting for the problem domain. It seems meanwhile they also added Java and C++ support.

I too used to program in the Swarm platform with Objective-C.

Off-topic, but if you are interested in frameworks like this, also check out the MASON Multiagent Simulation Toolkit (which is based in Java):
