Stevey's JVM Language Soko-Shootout (from Pnuts Addict)

懐かしの倉庫番ゲームを9つのスクリプト言語で実装し、それらの得失を比較しています。Groovyに対してはかなり批判的。

Groovy's got so much wrong with it that you could almost write a textbook about it, with individual Badness Chapters, a Table of Badness, and a Bad Index.

Unfortunately, Jython is languishing back at version 2.1, and it doesn't look like it'll catch up any time soon. Even so, Jython is still one of the best all-around JVM languages. For certain domains (including scripting, prototyping and unit testing), I don't think anything out there today beats it
