I can't keep wondering whether it just was comparably little effort to port or if there's another reason to choose a 6 year old game with plenty of similar ones available.

Probably the first Feral ported game I won't buy. At least not without a massive sale. :-/

I actually backed it on KS but only tried the alpha once. I'm really looking forward to playing it but will probably wait until release to have the best experience. Nice updates though from what the videos show.

Quoting: SpykerI watched the video, but still I didn't understand what the purpose of his new language. What problems does it solve that cannot be done in other modern languages ?

He explain it in the first video of this playlist why no other modern language is a perfect fit for gamedev:

I personally enjoyed Valley more but both are really good and different enough to recommend both. =)

Micha, How did you get that "Game Dev" tag?

Liam offered it after he found out I'm a coder working on Albion Online.

Glad I backed it. However not at the alpha test tier so will have to wait until EA but that's fine. =)
