So Udemy has a sale and I am thinking of getting a coding course to help me make my game better..

Would yall recommend C programming course or C++? Or something else?

Thanks
 
Coding classes alone won't make your games better. It doesn't really work like that.

What it will do is give you a better understanding of how OpenBOR and other applications work. You'll also be much better equipped to leverage native functionality and scripts to bring your ideas to life. Well worth the time.

C, C++, and OpenBOR script are very different from each other in how they work, but all use identical syntax. Learn one and you can figure out the others.

For that reason I reccomend C++. It's more modern than C and more commonly used. You'll have a much easier time finding tools and resources too.

Yesterday I downloaded an app called "Grasshopper" through online ads. It's an app which you can learn much about programming languages through taking simple lessons from basic to master/advanced (from baby/beginner steps, even if you don't have a programming background). I began with baby steps starting with fundamentals because I know I don't have enough knowledge of scripts (and I wanna learn much of it). I know some though. You can do anything with JavaScript, C, C++, or any.

I don't need a coding class, but does this "Grasshopper" app count as a coding class? Thought of trying it for those who want to learn programming especially developing games.

Thanks Damon! Very helpful,  I'll start on c++ then, thanks for taking time to reply.

Maxman, I'll look into that grasshopper app also.

Thanks!
