Writing Arinoid using pyGame (4 ShowMeDo videos)

(1/2) > >>

tinjaw:
from gmane.comp.python.announce

Summary:
Chuck Arellano created 4 pyGame videos during 2006 which show the
viewer how to build an Arinoid (Arkanoid-like) game clone.  Full src
and graphics are provided:
http://showmedo.com/videos/series?name=pythonArellanoPyGameSeries

Detail:
Chuck produced the videos and is considering completing the set
by producing the 5th (and final) video.  If you like his efforts,
would you leave a comment on one of the pyGame pages encouraging
him to complete the set?  All authors like to know that their
work is valued!

Thanks for posting this, tinjaw! Yes, the videos have made their way to ShowMeDo, and I'm very excited about this because they'll be made available to a lot of other people. I really hope that a lot of people find it helpful, and I would really appreciate any type of feedback.

Hopefully I'll be able to finish the fifth video soon! :)

Yesterday was my first experience with pygame. I have been working with v 2.5 since I first started with python. So yesterday I loaded up 2.4 and all of the other stuff I needed. I got the demos to work with a bit of effort and Googling. With that all done, I'm going to spend some time with the videos.

After Asteroids of Orion, I'm sure you wouldn't need the videos :)

tinjaw:
Thank you for your kind words.

Asteroids of Orion was built using Garage Games Torque Game Builder. I am going to need to learn how to do things myself with pygame. I have it loaded up and tested it and I am going to be playing with it this weekend while working on my current project. I am going to watch your videos, with coffee, early this weekend to get me started.
