Ask HN: Besides Java, what language you'd choose to develop a MineCraft game?
Understand that MineCraft is developed using Java. MineCraft is also cross platform on Windows, Mac and Linux. If you're to start anew, besides Java, what other programming language would you choose to develop a game similar or clone of MineCraft?
- aperture123 15y agoPython would be an excellent language to consider. A lot of MineCraft is based off of features users can add to it. While Java does make this easy, python is more user-friendly and readable, thus encouraging more people to contribute.
- arkitaip 15y agoThe one I'm most familiar with. And I would probably make in entirely web based using html5 or flash.
- veeti 15y agoC++.
- sigvef 15y agoAny language, as long as it has OpenGL bindings, really.
- TeMPOraL 15y agoCommon Lisp. Because, why not? ;).
