What language do you mainly use?

[Desktop Gaming]

I see a lot of threads here where people are talking about coding problems but there's rarely a mention of what language is being used.

Do you all use C++ or something? I know there's a few Blitzmax users here (like me).

Still famously Java, but not so voiciferous now, 'coz I don't want to give anyone else any advantages any more

C# because it's fun

Python.

I recoded the mini-games in my current RPG about a dozen times each. Each recode took around one day.

Python.

I like to say, it lets me code as fast as I can design. I spent 20 years programming in C and C++. Changing to Python was like moving from a typewriter to a word processor.

That last one sounded like one of those commercials where they repeat the product's name loudly and mentioning other stuff inbetween :-P.

Personally i use Java and C++, depending on the case.

C++ for production code, Python for tools, ad-hoc tasks, the build system, and prototyping some algorithms.

I completely agree! I've written two casual games using Python for the game code and it completely rocks.
