Which is the best programing language for making games

Answer 1

ActionScript.

Answer 2

c# or c++ for console games, java for android, swift for ios, JavaScript for web based games, but all of that is debatable.

Answer 3

I once used Pascal purely because it was the only available language with a free DLL/API for directX. Nowadays Unity is a recommendation for c#.

It sounds shallow but they typically require most of the effort in making the graphics. Android and browser based being obvious exceptions.

Depends on the game, Vampire Masquerade was unusual in using Java to script its dialogs.

Answer 4

There is a popular game engine called Unity 3D which is totally free to use. This is an industry standard tool. It is very powerful engine and easy to use. They have plenty of tutorials on their site. So, all you need to do is learn any one programming language out of C#, Javascript and Boo. C# is the widely used programming language not just in Unity but other places as well. So, if you want to dive into game development then you have to learn basics of C# and then start making games.

Did I mention that you just need to code once and export game for various platforms like Android, iOS, HTML5, Windows etc.
