Programming language for serious game development

Question

Is there any good programming language out there for serious game development

Answer 1

C++ if you're serious. Java, Python, or any other interpreted language is going to be too slow for complex games.

Answer 2

if you use the unity-engine then its C#

Answer 3

I'd look at what platform you want to use. Java is native to Android, Objective C is used for IOS, and C# is modular.

As mentioned from a previous post, Unity is a decent game engine which implements C#. I've used C# for a few games here and there but nothing big. Although, you can use C# for Desktop, Android & IOS apps (through Xamarin), and even windows phones. That might be a good place to start unless you want to make it specifically for one platform.

Answer 4

What about c++ Unreal Engine or c++ Cryengine

Answer 5

c++ or lua

Answer 6

C#, unity is very popular currently and easier to learn.
