Answer 2

For Android learn: Java
For Unity learn: C#
For Unreal Engine learn: C++

Answer 3

@David Carroll Ok, changed it now, thanks for clarifying 😄

Answer 4

@Learnsolo... Unless I completely missed something, I don't believe C++ is used in Unity3D. However, you are right about C# being used for Unity3D.

Unreal Engine does use C++. Both are fantastic gaming platforms.

Answer 5

You're right, @David, Unity3D can be extended (create plugins) with C++, but does not support that language for game development

Unreal Engine does admit it, and it's a really robust platform. In addition, C++ has a series of libraries and engines very extensive for video games

Answer 6

You can’t start from scratch you need to know the base of coding before you jump in, I’d recommend HTML, CSS and maybe later for actually creating behaviors in a website or a game JavaScript. If you want a game not web based it would be harder you would need a game engine and at least know Csharp which is a difficult language.

Answer 7

Decide what platform you want to build your game in. Then you should practice. Do at least two game projects just for practice and then you are ready to make the game you always wanted:)

Answer 8

challenge me if you can

Answer 9

Learn the basics of real languages like c++, c#, Java and maybe python, then start learning how to use game engine of your choice: Unity, Unreal engine, Godot, etc.
Don't even think about making your own engine. It's impossible to make decent one for us plebians.
And start small. What you think is small project will be much bigger than you think it is.
