Would it be possible to (now or eventually) play this game with "all" languages? Part of the value of this to me, would be doing it in languages i love, or want to learn, etc. Using a language i dislike, or even are indifferent about, means the gameplay itself has to pull all of my entertainment.. weight, if you will.

Thoughts?

You can play this game in languages that transpile to javascript, but sadly the server runs all your code and is only setup to handle JS.

Thankfully tons of stuff transpiles to JS easily, and off the top of my head, I know theres a python starter somewhere, and im sure you could find some for other languages

I guess in theory you could use any language that can be compiled into asm.js, although you'd need to make a lot of bindings to their JS API
