Title says it all. I'm planning to somehow make an ASCII-based game, but I don't know how. I'm probably going to use C++ or C#, maybe even Java.

Visual Studio 2013 is free, and if you have not programmed before, C# would be a great place to start. If you google C# ASCII game there is a bunch of pages which talk about how its done.

BigBob85 : I've used VS 2013. I wonder why I didn't google it myself? Thanks for the reply!

If you're using C++, all you really need to know is std::cout.

I mean, you'll probably want to look into loops and if statements and pointers and arrays and stuff, too.

I'd use XNA.

Simple language to learn, plenty of amazing XNA game tutorials online.
