Java vs. C#

Unity Engine
1

Hi, I’ve been learning Unity based on the Java version of the scripts. However, I also know a bit of C# from my .NET programming days, so switching to a different language wouldn’t be the end of the world for me. Clearly both languages are rather intuitive, but I was wondering if there’s a performance impact or benefit in Unity depending on which language is used for a game. I’d like to concentrate my learning efforts on the language that is going to be most efficient and effective for iOS game development.

Thank you for your advice.

Unity does not use Java. You mean Unityscript, AKA Javascript (though it’s not much like web Javascript). But there have been many threads on this subject, and it usually leads to language wars, so please do a search and you can find all you ever wanted to know on this subject. Short answer, there is no real performance difference.
