Would learning java be just as good?
There was someone making a port of the JAVA VM to the GP32, but his website is not online anymore so maybe the project is dead.
But of course knowing any programming language is going to be a great advantage. Specially JAVA since you will already know about data types and arrays...
int, char, long, arrays, etc
and you will also know about loops
for, while and do while
and you will also know about conditional statements
if, if else, else, switch
WHEN YOU KNOW the above things you can pretty much program in any language, its just a matter of looking up the API to learn how to display graphics and do sound.
Just get a hold of a good tutorial or the source of a few games and you'll be set.
