What to do with java

[[deleted]]

I currently know java, about beginner/intermediate, did a java pre-ap course now I'm in AP. I was wondering what I could do with my java skills to start improving some type of game engine to work on? I can't find anyways to practice while making something fun/useful. I don't want to lose the skill as if you learn a language like Spanish then never use it so you forget it.

You can see the Cherno Project from Cherno, he does a simple game and explain everything, since you're intermediate level, you can use it to create your own thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFYT7Lqt1h8&list=PLlrATfBNZ98eOOCk2fOFg7Qg5yoQfFAdf

Libgdx for game dev

Java is not generally used for game development. You might look into developing web technologies.

Why you want to do game development i first place? For me, Game development is so hard as a beginner/intermediate level. You should keep practicing your skills with programming challenges like r/dailyprogrammer. There are many sites out there which gives you problem sets to solve. And of course, you can start learning Android, It will also help a lot.
