.Net is definitely where you want to start. There are a bunch of languages you can write in on the .Net framework, but in my opinion the best option is C#.

I agree I started with VB but it was a mistake in my opinion. C# is the most like the other languages that are popular for making games.

Easiest would be java. The most beneficial language would probably be C++ or C#.

HTML has nothing to do with game programming.

Get a grasp on the basics in vb like Data Types, Variables, etc and then move onto C++ as it's a doddle then.


Whatever you do... don't do what I did when I started by copying and pasting code and not learning anything from it, then claiming it as mine... there's really no point as you're learning NOTHING.

HTML isn't even a programming language, it's a markup language.
It lacks logical constructs like conditional branching, iteration and more.

IMO Java is the easiest and most fun language to use but I started out learning basics with c++ then I moved onto Java I'm currently entering my freshmen year of college as a comp sci major but I code at more of a junior comp sci major level. But that's only because I have had 2 semesters of c++ and 2 semesters of Java under my belt
