I'm pretty much new to this. I want to code mainly for video games and such.
Also please, don't argue about which language is better than which, numbers speak louder than words.
If there are any recommended guides or ways of learning the languages you suggest, please note them as well. Thank-you /prog/
Learn Common Lisp and C. Some people might argue that they're not the most adequate for video games (I disagree), but these two will probably make you a good programmer.

I'll say this now: be realistic with yourself. Most wannabe programmers born in the late 80s or early 90s go into programming with this mindset, and ultimately they just get frustrated and quit. You want to program, not make games.

Last time I checked, JS was just another crappy OOP language with all these private and protected shits.

Lisp is inadequate for making games. It's great for learning the functional paradigm which will make you a better programmer in general, but in practice it's not the most useful language for any applications other than number crunching.
C with SDL is good once you've mastered C, but that will take months if not years depending on how smart you are and how well you understand programming in general.
Python with Pygame is hands down the easiest and fastest way to make games and it's a great language to learn from, so I'd start with that if I were you.

Only jews make games. I suppose we should steal your game or rip it from sprites, cuz you are a jew and a python/c++ evildoer.
