SGL: A Scalable Language for Data-Driven Games
Summary: SGL is a scalable declarative language and system for data-driven games, encoding complex game logic as relational operations. Demo shows a complete game built in SGL, workflow to modify it, and visualization of relational operators as the game runs. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
