The Ada community needs a physics engine on top of which to build state-of-the-art games. Either a binding or better yet a port or fresh design entirely in Ada2012 or Ada2020. The benefit of a physics engine would have applicability to Ada's core mission of realtime embedded systems (even for military usage) far beyond gaming.
