Best Language For Game Development?

well technically python can make games

but if you want to make something current you'll probably want to switch, otherwise if you're happy making pong you can learn from scratch in a couple hours in pygame

I wish Cleopatra looked a bit more Greek.

>>56119969
Why do they always try to make Cleopatra look darker or more Egyptian? There are even people who believe she was black.

C# or C++

id roll with C#

>>56120045
Was she not Egyptian ?

Learn C++ instead

Python is horrible for games

She's a descendant of a Macedonian general.

>>56120045
you mean...we was kings?

>>56120132
She was an Egyptian queen but her dynasty was Greek. Her ancestor Ptolemy I Soter took control of Egypt and much of the Levant following the death of Alexander the Great.

She was an exceedingly inbred Greek. For example, her mother was not only her father's cousin but also his niece. And her first two husbands were her brothers, both named Ptolemy.

Interesting, thanks.

The Jews are from Egypt.

If african americans claim to have been Egyptian kings, then they are affirming that they persecuted Jews...

Lua seems to be the most popular scripting language in use.
But if you're referring to building the engine or other low level stuff instead of game logic then C++ is your best bet

C++, C#, Lua, nobody makes games in Python

Just use Unity. It's in C#, so it's still got that friendly appeal, plus it takes care of rendering for you.

Gawd, C# is the worst you guys.

It's like .Net raped C++ with big black Java dildo and C# was what born of that.

>>56121398
Yeah fuck C#

Nothing fucking works in Unity

So Python then?

>>56120426
Jews were from the levant, not Egypt, and there is actually no archaeological or historical evidence for Jewish enslavement in Egypt. Moses and the story of coming to the promised land are latter day Hebrews mythologizing their history.

>>56121504
no use Unity and c#

they ARE shit and python is a better language,

but you probably want a job and thats what firms develop with

>Python is better than C#

just pick one there's plenty of frameworks and libraries to do it it in practically any language not made explicitly for the web

I hate it when my waifu surprise attacks me

>>56119676
All interpreted languages are bad for larger games, if you don't know where to start use a game engine.

2d? Gamemaker Studio
3d? Unity

>>56119676
Vast majority of the industry uses C++, sometimes with gameplay-specific code done in embedded Lua/Python. If you're fine with doing low-level programming but C++ turns you off, try D or Nim

>>56120426
I think I like black people more now.

>>56119676
If you're making a VN python is good, just use renpy. Otherwise you're kinda fucked because there are no comprehensive and actively maintained libraries for multimedia, let alone gamedev. pygame is dead, the SDL2 bindings are dead too, so you can go with pyglet which is unmaintained.

You're better off using love2d (lua), gamemaker or construct2. Give Haxe a go too, it's the most portable alternative. For C++ dev SFML is ok, don't use SDL2 unless you plan on making everything, literally everything, from scratch.

If you are hardcore you can go with unreal (C++) and Unity (C#).

Oh by the way, give godot a go. It's a new free/open source game engine. It has a python-inspired script language and an ok WYSIWYG editor. Works on Linux too.

Use that new free shit Amazon just released
