What should future game developers consider? What language to start learning from? What to strive for? Who to look up to? And what needs to be done first?

Most rock music lovers pick up the guitar sooner or later. Sports fans dream passionately about going to the football field, basketball court or tennis court. Well, those who have committed hundreds of hijackings in GTA, spent dozens of hours in computer clubs for Counter-Strike, or achieved considerable success in MMORPGs, are probably thinking about a career as a game developer.

What to strive for?
Before going to the store, you make a shopping list (at least in your head). Before traveling to the other end of the city, you are planning a route. Well, before learning how to develop games, it is advisable to ask the question: what exactly do you want to do? Create mobile apps or browser games? Work in a large company or a small one? Do you professionally develop games or devote your free time to it? And if the former, what interests you more: creating an interface, polishing gameplay or writing scripts?
What language to learn?
In addition, the answer to the burning question depends on the goal: which programming language should you start with?

So, future developers of games like Minecraft and mobile applications for Android should pay close attention to Java. For a start, we recommend taking the Java Programming Basics intensive. For those who are looking towards iOS - Objective-C. For browser games, knowledge of Ruby-On-Rails is sometimes enough. For very small and simple, HTML is enough at times. Flash games use ActionScript, and to write scripts of any complexity, you need JavaScript, or perhaps the less common Lua. To create small console games requires knowledge of C #.
Do not be afraid that you might not succeed. In this case, you can always ask experienced developers for help in development https://kevurugames.com/ They will help you eliminate all errors and explain what and where you did wrong.

As for the most large-budget games (the so-called AAA class), most of them are equipped with their own or borrowed from colleagues "engine". Often, however, the entire "engine" or most of it is written in C ++. This language has been used in the creation of many famous "toys" - from Doom 3 and Call Of Duty to FIFA and The Sims. While classics like Quake were written in C.

However, there is a catch in mastering C ++ - excessive complexity. It’s not for nothing that they say that taking on C ++ without knowing other languages ​​is like starting the study of mathematics with linear equations.
