What’s the best language to learn for game development?

Question

I’m still a beginner and I need to know what language is the best for game coding, as I’m trying to make a career out of game development in the future

Answer 1

C/C++ are the most used languages for gaming development they are the languages which are mainly used for games. But smaller games can also be written in Python. I suggest you first learning python as it easy and more understandable, and then go ahead with c++ :)
Good luck with your gaming developer carreer!!!!=)

Answer 2

 After looking for job requirements, gamebuilding startups, and populargame engine and coursebooks I ended up with the following.

C++ for the basics and wide variety

But that is just the coding answer to you question.

Game development is much more then just coding. And you need to find out what part(s) you like most.

Please consider some of the following components of game development.

Storyline
Music and sound design
Graphical design
Networking design
And there is much more...

My recommendation for your game development career is.

First build and finish a VERY SIMPLE game yourself with any simple game developer tool to your liking. And give it away for free. Work on this project and see what kind of functional design you  like most to work on.

Then volunteer in an (indie)game develop project.

By the end of this you probably know what you need for game development coding or area you like.

Enjoy this journey!

You could always research game engines then decide on which one you want to use, then learn the language or languages they support.
