I’m relatively new to programming altogether, but have been learning Python lately. I want to know if this language is perfect for a game I’m thinking about developing.

The game I’m thinking of mixes 3rd person RPG with pixel-art, with 1st person point and click. Another project I would like to make is a website/ or an app that helps my brother’s business that he’s going to start.

maybe you are looking at something like RPG maker instead? [https://www.rpgmakerweb.com/](https://www.rpgmakerweb.com/)

creating the game engine on your own is a lot of work

the language of the web is HTML+CSS+JavaScript

Python can be the backend tho
