Discussion on which language to use

[ashish2199]

We will be working with on creating our own version of Bomberman game.

We have two options mainly we can use for making the game

• JavaFX
• HTML5/Javascript

Also provide your feedback on whether we should be using any game development framework or not. If yes , which one ?

Please share what you are most familiar with. Which one should we choose ? Any advantage of one over the other.

[CiaranRoft]

I would rather do something in JavaFX.

[StewartWallace1115]

HTML5/ JavaScript. Try something new but I have used JavaFX in the past.

[llllllxu]

I prefer JavaFX

[ashish2199]

So far this is what i feel for me

JavaFX

• Past experience with Java
• Following OOP and Structuring , organisation of code will be easier
• I feel we would be able to do advance animations and effects more easily

JS/HTML

• More tutorials and references
• Mobile Support and not dependent on JRE

So far I prefer JavaFX over JS. Unless someone suggest more advantages with JS/HTML or has experience in making something similar we would go with JavaFX

@others Please provide your opinion.

I can do either or, but JavaFX sounds good.

[larfies]

I'm happy with either.

[jariss]

Never worked with either, but I know some Java and do want to learn JavaFx.

+1 for JavaFX

[HarrisJT]

+1 for JavaFX, I find it really enjoyable and not to hard, we can even use css for styling. I would suggest people look at the docs if they haven't used it before.

Since most of you want to work with JavaFX so we will be using it for making our game.

Thanks for your feedback.

Issue Closed.
