Post more Kurisu and I'll give you a good answer.

C++

>>59906167
c++/c# and unreal script language

Not as much as linux it seems...

>>59906167
Easy: Lua, JS, Python, C#
Medium: C, C++, Rust
Hard: Assembly
Retard: Lisp, Brainfuck, Ada, Punch Cards

Not even once.

depends if you want to make games from scratch or just use an engine.

C++ for games from scratch, that way you dont have to rely on wrappers and bindings for libraries like opengl.

or just learn the language your engine of choice uses, like C# for unity3d

>>59906167
Esperanto

>>59906167
I made game of life in C for an assignment once, so from my experience I would say C.

>>59906329
Ada's got all the important libraries you need to make games with.

>>59906167
c/c++/c#/python/js/html/css

Enjoy

>>59906167
English, because the best game studios are in the US.

>>59906167
Rust

>>59907494
Didn't know that.
The syntax looked dank too.

>>59906167
javascript, duh.

what kind of stupid question is that?

Whatever language the textbooks of choice for the field is written in. Gonna go out on a limb here and say english.

>>59906167
C--

>>59906167
6805 assembly.

>>59906262
this

>>59906262
This. Even discord was written in electron

Uhh... No. Name one (1) relevant game made in Rust.

>>59911333
Name one (1) relevant game you made.

If you want to make shitty indie games: any language
If you want to be a game dev: C++

Never said I wasn't a lazy dumb faggot. However recomending a programming language for making games, when there are no games written in that language is a bit stupid.

Consult the Amateur Game Dev thread in /vg/

Start out with Unity, you can pick up C# or javascript along the way for it.

Realistically, the better question to be asking would be what engine to be using, rather than what language. The answer to that if you're just getting into game development, is probably Unity. It's proprietary, but you don't have to pay a cent if you make less than $100k a year in revenue (and if you do end up making more, it's a fee per month per Unity license, and not a royalty system), and you can port to pretty much any semi-relevant platform, including Linux. If you'd rather a free game engine, you could try Godot, which is still pretty useful.

With Unity, you'll likely be programming games in C# or their custom UnityScript language, while Godot uses their own custom scripting language. Both engines also allow you to use C++, which is fairly universal among game engines due to the performance advantages it offers.

TL;DR: Learn C++, pick up a popular game engine.

It's not even possible to write a game in Rust, it changes so fast you can't even write hello world

Ubuntu killed Unity though.

Just use premade Unity assets and sell it on Steam Greenlight you dumb goy.

You are an idiot. Every stable release of Rust is guaranteed to be compatible with the older one.

you will need AI so Scheme.

Just use gamemaker fag

Only correct answer coming through.
Try harder undergrads, hipsters, and NEETS.

>>59906167
Is this a question, really?

Just find out what your favorite game was programmed in and do that
Holy shit, God help me

>>59906167
just learn how to use GameMaker you stupid faggot

are you really better than Devolver Digital? I doubt it

Pygame. It's fine for starting, but you'll want to move on to C++ after you've got the basics down. It's a massice pain in the ass to make a pygame program an excutable file.

>>59906329
What about Java?

Chinese, you cuntnugget

You would think C++, but libraries like SDL or GLFW all have a C-style API, so you should go with C

>>59906167
Delphi or Python.

Holy fucking shit
I had a teacher who was one of the "most qualified LabView developper" and he only swore by that shit.
