I'm just curious; (As I'm taking a break from C++ for awhile..)
I'll probably have to do my own hours of research, but I'll ask anyways.
Which of the following has more support for Windows graphical game programming? Python or Ruby?
Thanks in advance,

I would say python. I don't know any equivalent of pygame in Ruby.
Another (functional programming) alternatives would be lush and clean.

They're pretty much equivalent in terms of functionality, so I'd recommend Python over Ruby, as Ruby's performance sucks

I have done a bit of Python - and ruby did not appeal to me when I tried to learn it after that.

I would recommend Python.
