He did make the argument that Python simply has a bigger userbase and more libraries already completed for game development. I believe these are legitimate observations to make when giving advice to somebody who has no experience in game development. | |

You assert that Ruby is "not really for games," but that's ALL you say. There's little value in that. As for why OP would want to use Ruby, it's quite clear: it's "the only language he knows really well." That's not at all the same as "just because it's possible." | |

| Sep 6, 2010 at 3:20 | comment | added | Ricket | C++ is a nice language, but it's not really for games to be honest. If you don't want to use assembly but want something like C++ check out C. For a good C framework you should check out something like libsdl.org. (okay it doesn't quite work because C++ is backwards compatible but you get the point) | |
