Ada is something I've always wanted to get into (it interests me that there's a low level programming language that came around at the same time as C but just never took off)

Ada has a bunch of features built into it already, including concurrency support with tasks [0]

I just haven't found the right motivation to figure out what to do with it yet. Maybe I could play around with the Raylib bindings [1] at some point?

There's also the SDL bindings, which a LOT of work has seemingly gone into [2]
