Hi,

   I'm interested in hearing from anyone who is using Allegro CL or
another CLOS tool for game development.  Specifically, I'm interested in
learning about tools/extensions that might speed up our game development
time. Success/horror stories about CLOS game development would also be
appreciated.  Thanks in advance for your considered responses.

Sincerely,

D.C. Phillips

Hmmm, I seem to recall an article on Franz's web site
(http://www.franz.com) a while back about a company that developed
something called GOOL (Game Object Oriented Language?) using CLOS.  They
are the makers of the Crash Bandicoot games.  I believe this game could
be considered very successful, and I remember the article stating the
company's experience using Lisp+CLOS was very positive.  Other than
that, yo no se.
