What editor/IDE do you guys program your game in, and in what language(s)? :)

I am new here, so this is a good "first reply" post... I am programming my first roguelike in Python (I have found the Python/libtcod tutorials invaluable), and while I tend to switch editors a lot I have settled on Sublime Text. I used to use emacs but found that I ended up spending more time futzing with my editor and writing lisp functions than I did working on the code I was supposed to be writing. ST works wonderfully for Python development.

Welcome to the forums. Good luck with your project, and congratulations for using the best code editor in the world

First of all, I'm new here and I discovered libtcod last year when I was playing DCrawl Stone Soup and, suddenly, I was urged to make my own roguelike. Currently, I'm developing a text based sports manager and I think that libtcod is the perfect library to make a cool-old-fashioned GUI.

My combo: Windows + Python + PyScrypter. I love python and I think it is the best language around for small/free games. With Python I can make a lot of progress on my proyects in less time than in C/C++. Also, I like it's syntax and object approach a lot.

PyScrypter it's OK for me, I get comfortable with it some time ago and I don't feel the need to change it.

Ubuntu + Eclipse (mainly because it supports refactoring) with PyDev + Git

I'm very new to Python, so i try to get grasp on it by writing a simple roguelike.
This is very fruifful experience, i already learned some nice tricks =)


So i'm working under Ubuntu 10.04, using Python and libtcod.

Mostly i am using Vim with bunch of plugins for word completion/go to definition and such stuff.
Also i tried commercial IDE named Pycharm, worked like a charm (pun intended).

Next language (and roguelike) will be Common Lisp, i think.

PyCharm is my primary python IDE, under both Win7 and Ubuntu.

I use MonoDev for C++

I'm using C++, writting with Vi(m) and compiling with CMakeFiles, under ArchLinux

I'm using Eclipse + pydev, working on Ubuntu 12.04 and Windows XP.

Using the same setup on two different OSes has some surprising merits - yesterday my roguelike had the strangest behaviour on Linux - it silently terminated on console_flush 1 time after a code change, then worked ok until next code change - very weird (hence my registration to this forum). However, after booting Windows, it just crashed every time with a memory access violation and I've been able to figure out that I've been blitting a console declaring its size to be bigger than it really was. It saved quite a bit of grief to investigate it that way!
