What code(s) should I learn in order to design a SIMS type open world mobile game?

Question

I am looking to make an open world SIMS style game with unlockable links to exclusive content like live streaming concert footage, not-yet-released songs and videos, and "live" meetings. I am trying to prioritize which languages to learn first and could use some advice. Thanks in advance for any feedback I might get! 😀

Answer 1

You will have to learn something like C++ or C# for the physical game, and then learn Java or Python for the server (social) side of things! You could also learn Swift for apple products. You will have to learn how to use Adobe Photoshop or Blender for graphics.

Putting everything in an engine, such as Unity, will also make things a lot easier overall.

Hope this helps! If you have any other questions feel free to ask!

Answer 2

@finjap, there are a lot of apps out there made by "novices". With the right support team, I don't believe that a degree is absolutely necessary.

I really love programming!!!!! I'm in Highschool. how can I get to study abroad when there aren't computer based institutes in my country. And the ones I find abroad, I ain't able to afford for

Answer 14

@Finjap I would say C++ or C# just because they build the actual game, but you would need to learn both at somepoint anyways if you want an online interactive game.

Hope this helps and feel free to ask for more help anytime :)

Answer 15

Well I own a Front/Back End Dev company so I look at what languages they are certified in, then what certifications they have. They have to have Front End certification minimum. I also look at prior expirence and they have to submit their portfolio page, where I look at both the code and the page itself. We also look at some other basic things.

Answer 16

if its 2d you can also write the code with pygame

Answer 17

@Finjap Of course you can! You could even do it for xbox if you really wanted to. Having a diploma isn't a requirment at all because coding is taught not only at just colleges. Google Playstore has a super easy process to get your app in their store too, even if it is just beta versions.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 18

Thanks

Answer 19

@Finjap You have to print it out yourself unfortunatly. SoloLearn doesn't have the money or man power to send hard copies to anyone. Simply taking a screenshot or exporting it as a pdf will also make it easier to print.

Hope this helps! And as always if you have any questions I am here to help!
