Question

what coding language should I learn for game development

Answer 1

The best coding language is the one you're comfortable with, and what kind of games you want to create.

If you want to create 3D games, you can use Unity which uses the C# language and performs well and can be used for a variety of games.

Unreal Engine 4 or 5 are also good for developing games however their games tend to be much larger in file size due to them importing a lot of assets in whenever you use someone elses assets for your software.

Godot is also a very good option which can be programmed using GDScript, which is very much like python and easy to use and learn, or C++. You can create 2D and 3D games using this and the newest version, 4.0, will create beautiful games.

Other languages have their own libraries but these are the main ones I'd recommend. If you are a fan of Python, look into using Pygame as it's very good for 2D applications.

Answer 2

for gaming you can prefer java as well python but everyone give more preference to java only

Answer 5

For game development?.I asked chat gpt about it and it says python's syntax is easy to read making it beginner friendly plus C# is also a good choice but if you want to make 3d games c++ and c# is perfect for you because python is mostly 2d games

Comments

Btw python is the worst at creating games but you'll get used to it

Answer 6

for me i think learning c++ and python3 can  be better for game developing. But also if you have  enough time you may study c# ,python3 and c++ because all of them are needed in game developing.

Answer 7

c++ is really good for game development and a great for graphics card

Answer 8

You should try Java, it's a great coding starter.

Answer 9

Minecraft Bedrock uses C++, while Minecraft Java uses Java; both are good, but I think C++ is a better coding language for games, as it really releases the limits that Minecraft Java edition has.

Answer 10

I don’t know a lot, but I would suggest that you learn unity, its used in a lot of web/ steam games.
