Programming Language

Capitalism:
I don't know much about creating games yet. But I was curious as to what language this game is written in?

I just like watching games in development, someday I'll get around to learning a real language, and make something...someday...

joshrl:
Uhh... I think you know at least one language.  :o

Joking aside, I want to know too!

But if I were to start somewhere it'll have to be a easy language first, Java or something...

What makes you think Java is easy? (it isn't!)

If you want an easy language to start with, try Python. With PyGame you can even create games without much trouble.

Exodee:
Java isn't all that hard, but I guess it depends on your mindset. It was the first real programming language I learned, in any case.

Anyways, a quick look with an id-tool reveals that the game has been compiled in C++. (Which is a language I wouldn't recommend to a beginner. :P)

tyroney:
I'll second python.  It's nice.  Hey, even Google likes it.

If you want to laugh while learning some basic concepts, visit http://lolcode.com .

If you play WoW, you might be interested in learning LUA, which is used for WoW addons.  (though honestly addons are a beast unto themselves)

And everybody interested in programming should check out redcode at some point in time.
