So.. is Java enough to make a 3D Android game?

Question

After you seniors gave me some idea about

https://www.sololearn.com/Discuss/2489658/?ref=app

I went for Java.
Well I already was at the process of learning both Java script and Java at the same pace but then I recognized that Java and JS are alot different . So
Here's my idea for a game ...
I want it to be a 3rd person 3d game as boxy as minecraft ... by third person I mean at an angle of 45° from the front . As a tile game with inventory .

So I did have the knowledge that minecraft was made from Java . So is it possible for me to make a 3D Android game as minecraft only using Java?

If not, Then which other programing language should I take in mind.

As well as - How long do you suggest for an individual to develop a game like minecraft starting as a newbie?

Lastly . Do Game engines require much programing language?

I did try to search this problem but found no such entries.

Anyways Thanks Again.

Answer 1

Razor Nightcore ... Umm... First you need to choose a programming language you will use for Engine. UE uses C++, that can be difficult to understand it. Unity uses C#, that much easier than C++. But you want to use Java. The only Game Engine I know to make 3D is JMonkeyEngine. There is also Godot Engine(2D and 3D) that uses his own programming language GDScript(Python like language) but you can write also there in C#, BUT there is not much Documentation for C# than for GDscript.

Answer 2

There's Unity

Answer 3

Firstly you should complete your c++ and Java course here, then it will much easier to understand.

Answer 4

Thanks again I'll check JMonkeyEngine.

Answer 5

Java is not that effective for game development. You need to learn c# or c++ with a game engine like Unity or Unreal. And also character modelling and 3d sculpting using Blender or any other professional software. Or Either you can use JMonkey.

Answer 6

Java is not enough, you need:
1. A Game Engine: for 3D unity,unreal, for 2D Gamemaker studio
if (game == '3D') {
2. 3D models with animation (You can use blender3d for that)
}elseif (game == '2D') {
2. 2D characters with animation (You can use photoshop,gimp,after effects,clip art studio etc)
}
3. Sounds for the game (fl studio or just download game sounds)
4. Some graphics design knowledge for game icons,backgrounds etc

Also there are online game engines and some game engines require little to no coding skills.

Answer 7

Try Unity or Unreal Engine4/5 These are the best

Answer 8

You cannot create 3D game without Game Engine(It would be too difficult). There is JMonkeyEngine for Java.

Answer 9

Thanks for the suggestion😊

Answer 10

I still don't get it .. There are many ppl who prefer unity and many who prefer UE could some one differentiate between the two.

Answer 11

By the way I'm in class 10 so I don't get any of it. But I still want to make progress for my computer science sector. well I don't have computer science so. Idk much about it.

Answer 12

Razor Nightcore Different Engines are using different programming languages.

Answer 13

I did get that before but many of the Q&As suggest Unity . Or Unreal Engine but I want to make a 3D 《Android》game .so which engine would ya suggest?

Answer 14

For 3D Models use blender

Answer 15

Thank you all for your appreciable opinions on this topic.
