Hi, I recently started learning Libgdx, new to Java world. But also started learning it with Kotlin. Do you it has any scope in gaming ? Also I work as full time Javascript dev.

Hello.
You can of course design 2D games with Kotlin, but if you are serious about game design and creation, then I recommend you Rust / C++ for game development.

I previously used Rust + Bevy not extensively, but just for 1 simple hobby project. Rust is amazing.
The only reason Im using Kotlin is it will be beneficial for my web development career and along the way I can learn game-dev.

Great strategy !
My favorite language is still Python and now I fell in love with Rust.
I want also explore Go lang - have you ever worked with it ?
