RPG Game with JavaFx or Java2D components?

[42Nicos]

Hi,

I want to create an 2D RPG game and I don't know, which language is the best to do it. First of all I heard about the new Java FX 2.0 technology. Is it a good solution? Or should I keep to the old Java2D? I have no experience with both, but with ordinary Java.

If you're not too experienced, go for Java2d. You'll find a lot more information about it and it's in an actual stable and working state. J2d is more than capable and it'll let you focus on the game not the graphics code.

Although it also sounds like this is your first game, in which case starting with an RPG is probably trying to swim before you can crawl, but good luck with it.
