I am currently working on a game I was told by one friend to use the language I am most comfortable in. However others have criticised me for not using their preferred language or environment.

Should I switch or keep going?

It's your first try, just go with something you are familiar with, don't need to be hard on yourself.

Also, being a beginner and having to fight against your tools is a great way to lose motivation when you aren't really spending time doing actual game development.

Great advice. i've sort of set up a system within my code that feels natural and makes adding new cities to the game feel much easier.
