How well suited is java for desktop games

Post by thecodethinker »

Is there any real reason I would use Jirr as opposed to normal irrlicht when making a desktop game? Assuming that I am equally proficient in both languages.

I don't think JIrr is maintained much anymore. So if you know c++ as well I'd recommend going with that. Or with C# - that has an actively maintained wrapper.
