I kind of like Odin, with its Pascal/Modula-2 influences, even if the community is a bit hardcore on some of their ideas.

Love the books in the background, and the whole video.

It is also nice that Odin takes the batteries included approach.

How well it would fair in the mainstream remains to be seen.

I've been using and loving Odin for probably around 5 years now, with this past couple years being more seriously invested in it. After tens of thousands of lines of code I'm still very happy. If you like C, but feel it's missing a few things, I highly recommend giving Odin a shot. Among the new litter of "better C" languages, Odin is easily the lowest-friction. It makes for a very nice experience. Congratulations, gingerBill.
