Is Python good for programming 3D video games?

Is Python a fast and secure programming language for 3D games?

Check it out, all done in Python's pyglet - an OpenGL library: https://www.instagram.com/p/BQ-8ubDDTNi/ https://github.com/kuba-siekierzynski/labyrinth3d but yes, Python is not *the best* option for fast 3D. Check out Unreal (C++) or Unity (C#) for better performance.

So what should I choose to learn 3D graphics? Java or C++ ? Java is multi-platform but some people told me that it is slow compared to C++? is it true?

@Jayden LeCorps do you like Java? I was going to post a question and see what everyone thought but I thought maybe you could answer for me. Is it actually any good? I can’t get the syntax down and it’s just so complex. What would you suggest I learn instead. (I did not try to learn java for any reason in particular)

@Jayden LeCorps Thanks so much, I have been working on C# a bit lately, so it’s good to know that I’m not wasting my time. Have you ever used Unity?

I have been using Unity and find it extremely useful. That’s why I wondered if you’ve tried it before.

No, the pygame module really helps but other languages are still much better equipped.

Yes it is true. Minecraft was a very popular video game made with Java but Java is not well suited to 3D games so yes, I would do C++. But if you’re looking for video game development, I wrote a guide to help those who are starting out. If you are interested please let me know.

It is also a short way down in trending just look for video game creation for newcomers.

@Jayden LeCorps Yes, most people told me that C++ is the best for 3D games.

It’s free(not the full version but hardly any difference) so no issues there. Not trying to be nosy but how can you keep replying to me on Thursday? I figured you’d be at school, and I don’t want your teacher to get angry.
