Plenty of games used Turbo Pascal as well, and it was for a long time the favourite language on PC demoscene.

Additionally most hit games back then were full of inline Assembly, regardless of the high level language, or even written 100% in Assembly.

Turbo Pascal 7 had a DOS extender.

There was Turbo Pascal for Windows 3.1, and with Delphi it started to be even more C++ influence with Pascal syntax, and safety first.
