I recently started an indie game studio and within the next week we are going to start creating our first game.

The question is "Which timer should I use to create my gametime (gameloop), and why"?

  • read Oracle tutorial Concurency in Swing, part Event Dispatch Thread, hint output from Swing Timer notified EDT, not from util.Timer – mKorbel Apr 03 '14 at 12:54
  • You shouldn't use Swing for your GUI, it is outdated. Use JavaFX instead. – Absurd-Mind Apr 03 '14 at 12:55
  • Look at some of the timing frameworks mentioned in [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/16316345/2587435). It'll give you some more options. – Paul Samsotha Apr 03 '14 at 12:56
