Hi Webmatrices,

I'm looking to get started in indie game development. Since there are so many programming languages to choose from, I'm interested in any recommendations from those of you with experience in this field.

And remember, no suggestions are too 'vanilla' or too 'rocky road' - every bit of guidance helps!

Looking forward to your insights. Thank you.

It's an amazing thing to start with indie game development. It depends on your goals, preferences and the type of game you want to build. You can experiment with different languages and engines to find out the right fit for your indie game development journey. Here are some languages that I will recommend you as these are easy to use and popular:

1. Unity (C#)

2. Unreal Engine (C++)

3. Godot Engine (GDScript)

4. JavaScript/TypeScript (HTML5)

5. Python (Pygame)

6. Lua (Corona SDK, Love2D)
