The game development connection seems very interesting:<p>"Not only does it provide seamless interop with the existing C++ engine/game code, but the REPL-driven workflows it supports will allow you to spin up your game once and then send code to it, get data back, and continue iterating on the code and data shapes without ever restarting your game."
