Games and 3D Graphics in Arcadia
summary
Arcadia integrates Clojure into the Unity engine, currently exporting cleanly to desktop while web and console targets are planned; it uses a forked ClojureCLR compiler with continuous AOT so Unity sees generated types and supports a live REPL workflow. The project ships a Hydrate system that maps Unity scene graph to Clojure persistent data for fast serialization and reuse, and it connects to hardware — e.g. a custom glove and Leap Motion using a binary serial protocol with gesture detection on an agent thread.
