Thank you so much for this terrific tutorial. I’m learning Python+Pygame to share with my Computer Science students (High School.) I like the way you suggest that some of these tools generalize, such as the spritesheet + tiling leading to tiling games. Nice.

First i want to applaud you! you are doing a great job. Some things are not so python like, you should use % instead of / and * and if you where to use / and * it really should be // and * to be cretin. and one last thing you should use “if colorkey” instead of “if colorkey is not None”

All this is how ever my opinions. And i really think you have done a great job.

Fantastic! I know it’s over a year since you posted these screencasts, but I have to express my gratitude for them. They’re the best introduction to Pygame and general game programming that I have found so far. And it uses Arkanoid as the basis! How perfect is that?

Thanks!

I think you have done a wonderful job with these and other screencasts! I learned so much about coding style from them. Are you planning to continue? I have enjoyed them all so far so I hope more are coming!
