I am currently working on a game I was told by one friend to use the language I am most comfortable in. However others have criticised me for not using their preferred language or environment.

Should I switch or keep going?

Thank you everyone for your great advice and encouragement to keep going. I will continue in BBC BASIC for SDL as i am really starting to get a good workflow going with it just get slowed down when i have to learn how to use new libraries lol

It's your first try, just go with something you are familiar with, don't need to be hard on yourself.

Also, being a beginner and having to fight against your tools is a great way to lose motivation when you aren't really spending time doing actual game development.
