They probably thought JavaScript would appeal to more people, but didn't wanna have multiple APIs, so just made a Javascript frankenstein that compiles into .NET (similarly Boo is just .NET Python).
Clearly if they wanted to court beginner developers they should've just used VB.NET instead. :getin:

The C# can be pretty strange too.

I would love to be in but I'll be going away during the jam and I'm not sure I'll get time to make games.
