Why not just [rustgd · GitHub](https://github.com/rustgd)?

Also, a link to the previous rust gamedev WG discussion:

> Just to add my two cents here - I’ve thought before that something like this should exist. Game development is one of the fields where Rust could really shine. There’s a lot to be said for it as a “better C”, before even beginning to talk about its safety features and ergonomics. I feel like Rust is mostly ready for game development, at least for medium-sized projects. Some evangelizing and polishing of game dev crates could be a real benefit.
