Best language for games!

Question

I like to write games.
I have been writing games in old languages for "retro machines".
I like the flow of ruby and it seems like a great language for simple text based games but it doesn't seem to have a lot for graphic controls.
I like to write mainly turn based rpgs and graphical text adventures.
What is the best language for handling simple 2d graphics and simple character controls (i.e. character movement, collisions)?

Answer 1

Mainly I just need to be able to move a graphical character object over a background graphic and have it interact with other graphical character graphic.

Answer 2

Maybe script language? For simple acts.
Maybe unity with boo and js, and also c#, if I remember

Answer 4
