I've been using D for little 2D games for Windows and it's an 
excellent choice. I never bothered to set up debugging properly, 
I mostly rely on printf debugging and stacktrace after crashes 
though. But you have access to libraries like SDL/SFML, 
Box2D/Chipmunk, for 2D game you don't really need much more. And 
it's definitely more fun than C/C++.
