Language

Question

which would it be the best language to write in if we wanted to develop game apps for android and apple at the same time

Answer 1

To do both at the same time is extremely difficult. I would suggest learning java for android and for ios, I would suggest objective-c or swift.

Answer 2

If you truly want to build once and deploy all, I would recommend learning C# with Xamarin.Forms. This will allow you to deploy apps natively for iOS and Android and it includes simulators for both. Happy coding!
