Any time I watch Tech with Tim, I slow down the video by 0.25 to 0.50 and can usually keep up to pace without pausing or rewinding much, it just makes him sound a little drunk sometimes..
Hey, would you folks ever consider making text tutorials? I suffered a concussion middle of last year and even though I'm out of the 7 month window of recovery, it seems that migraines and audio sensitivity are going to be a thing for me for... who knows how long. So, I have my own personal reasons for wanting text tutorials, but I can't be the only one who would like to see one or two? Ty
I found that to be able to run the tutorial with a double-click in Windows (rather than via the development environment), I needed to add the line: mypath = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)) near the start of the code (I put it after the line setting the caption), and then change the joins that specify "assets" from path = join("assets", to path = join(mypath, "assets", This is needed because double-click does not set your starting directory to the one where the code is stored, so the assets folder can't be found.
Its python *game* tutorial for beginners, not python tutorial for beginners. It is intended for people with some python experience since he wont explain the syntax that much
Need help, when i try to run the code on "Pixel Perfect Collision (vertical)" portion, i got error: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'overlap'
The box collision and mask collision stuff was very interesting. I remember as a kid that was one of the frustrating things when you "hit" something and the actual visible character clearly did not hit.
I am at 1:14:00 in the Video and I have the problem that my Charakter dissapears after ~4 sec cant find the misstake I have made can anyone help me? solved the problem! Thanks for the Video
Love the tutorial so far, but I've run into a snag and can't seem to get around it. I installed pygame through VSC but when I run the script to test whether it quits the game window, it gives me "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pygame' " because my pygame installation is located under Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/lib/python3.11/site-packages/pygame (using Mac) -- any suggestions?
Hey this is very late but while I was following the tutorial on the draw player part I'm getting an error saying "player is not accessed Pylance" and I'm unsure of what is causing it or what it means. If you can lmk how to fix it that would be amazing! Thanks.
Any tips on how to learn such things? How to approach this trying it on my own? This thing seems too complicated to just somehow start learning and applying this by myself...
I remember trying to look up a tutorial like this and never found one this good for python. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I plan to build a small game maybe the scale of the first Mario and really hope it either lands me a job or at least some donations from fans 😂 I’m so excited to try this out this weekend
having a problem at 54:24 where my code is saying "" 'pygame.Rect' object has no attribute ''topLeft' " i am using replit, idk if that changes anything but if I could any help it would be appreciated :)
I am on the journey to a programming degree and my goal is to program at least one game with every programming language that I learn. With the ultimate goal of designing and coding my own game eventually .
Es un muy buen video tutorial, pero como una segunda aproximación a PyGame. yo creo que este video es mejor para principiantes: ua-cam.com/video/FfWpgLFMI7w/v-deo.html It is an excellent tutorial, but as a second approach to PyGame. I think that this video is better for beginners: ua-cam.com/video/FfWpgLFMI7w/v-deo.html
01:18:40 I can only jump the number of times it say: player.jump_count < 2 01:27:50 Is there a fast way to add floor? 01:03:00 I checked it, every square in the terrain image is 8 px, it's 12 squares from edge to this image, 12*8=96 cant't find enemies file
For some reason whenever my character touches the ground it keeps bouncing on it, i double check the code with the one Tim had and I can't find the problem, anyone have any idea what could cause it?
How can u run the file with a lot of problems I have one and it just crashes does anybody know how to fix it I installed the pygame module but it still didn't work
The gravity implementation in this code is awfull. It hurts knowing that it could be impremented with just 2 lines of code. Every frame add 1 to y velocity, if on ground set y velocity to 0.
recreating the follw up on scripts , when making call player and just drawing it with the rectangle . i found out I put pgyame.rect but it required a pygame.Rect , that claimed a value error :(
This Tutorial is good but has a HUGE issue. since we are resetting the x.vel so the player doesnt move on toggle, but on hold... everytime the function is called we are resetting to the idle sprite. its not super visilible with this specific animation but its a BIG PROBLEM. maybe try to use on keydown instead of keys? idk
in Generating the backround, how in line 40 you make two variables take 2 values if there is only one? im having this error: ValueError: too many values to unpack (expected 2)
The tutorial is too complicated and advanced for novices. You must be proficient in Python and also master the usage of the pygame module, which is suitable for speeding up the viewing process.
I am having trouble where on line 69 27:29 where he placed player.draw(window) and run the script it launched, but for me it gives the error of AttributeError: 'Player' object has no attribute 'draw' what should I do?
assets , lists are just ways to bring images and other animations into code since you cant really make them in python besides creating turles etc. U make these in things like a sprite maker online or anything with the correct scale.
hello, I am having a problem at 48:34 at the def draw. I keep on getting this error in the terminal (KeyError: 'idle_left'). I've tried to fix this problem multiple times by rewatching and recoding it but I still can't seem to solve it. def draw(self, win): self.sprite = self.SPRITES["idle_" + self.direction][0] win.blit(self.sprite, (self.rect.x, self.rect.y)) I belive this is the code that keeps on erroring but I do not know how to solve it.
the ‘if direction:’ conditional within the load_sprite_sheet function needs to be within the first for loop called ‘for image in images’, not just in the function, that fixed it for me
I was having the same problem, and it was happening because an identation error. For me, it was in th load_sprite_sheets function: the return of the function must be out of the else block, otherwise it wont work properly.
its a beginner class into making games. You cant really make a game without knowing the tools? why its considered a beginner status for making games. example being, you don't teach yourself a rainbow flick in football before you learn how to kick a ball
Python is not really a good platform for commercial games, but on a reasonably fast PC it works remarkably well. For commercial games you should really be looking at Java as a minimum or a compiled language like C++. Of course, they are going to be much more work to get a game that even does what this does.
This video seems cool but I've run into a problem. I'm on the part where we're making the window. when I tried to run the code I wrote and the tutorial code, it said " Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\freeg\PycharmProjects\pythonProject31\main.py", line 24, in if _name_ == "_main_": NameError: name '_name_' is not defined " what can I do to fix this?
code not even working for me, it says pygame module not found but pygame is already installed, also import math random and os it's not even getting highlighted
Thanks so much for putting these tutorials out there. One of the things i don't understand is how do you know what functions to use within the PyGame library (Or any library for that matter)? I do know where to find the documentation online but it seems like a lot of info to parse through. Or do I just need to bite the bullet and RTFM? haha.
its very fast paced and its a lil hard to keep up and the details are not much discussed and why the code is structured that way, lil confusing
skill issue
I agree
Exactly
Yeah, I had to rewind the video a lot
Any time I watch Tech with Tim, I slow down the video by 0.25 to 0.50 and can usually keep up to pace without pausing or rewinding much, it just makes him sound a little drunk sometimes..
Hattsoff!!!! To all of your team that you’re providing all these useful courses free of cost

you can find the transcript of it in the description. I hope you get better soon.
I found that to be able to run the tutorial with a double-click in Windows (rather than via the development environment), I needed to add the line:
mypath = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
near the start of the code (I put it after the line setting the caption),
and then change the joins that specify "assets" from
path = join("assets",
to
path = join(mypath, "assets",
This is needed because double-click does not set your starting directory to the one where the code is stored, so the assets folder can't be found.
you just saved my day
yes i fixed it thanks a lot!
I'am 43 , I did it! I just finished your course .. thank you Tim
it feels great that, people like your age is doing this. keep it up sir
I WILL MAKE SILKSONG
This is amazing. I skimmed through the video because I dont have much time but I really want to watch this. Saved for later
Did you watch it?
Did you watch it yet?
Did you watch it yet?
Thanks a million Tim! I've been searching for two months now for a tutorial exactly like this to do a project with my son. My search is over!
bro if it took you 2 months to find this video when searching specifically for something like this you may need a career change
This is crazy I've been searching for a tutorial like this for years. Thank You Tim!!!!
You guys are so super i don't have words to appreciate you.Thnks for this video ❤❤
Why do you title it "for beginners," and then say it's for intermediate python programmers in the first two minutes?? Misleading.
Its python *game* tutorial for beginners, not python tutorial for beginners. It is intended for people with some python experience since he wont explain the syntax that much
😊@@ThatOneSweat
1:35:40 I notice that when I jump and land on the very edge of the block, it triggers the falling animation - wondering how to fix this?
Need help,
when i try to run the code on "Pixel Perfect Collision (vertical)" portion, i got error:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'overlap'
Got 2 questions Tim, why u dont use Sprites in pygame and what is the other way to bypass Sprites?
The box collision and mask collision stuff was very interesting. I remember as a kid that was one of the frustrating things when you "hit" something and the actual visible character clearly did not hit.
Are the assets public domain? If someone wants to use them commercially, can they?

Great and super easy to follow tutorial! I learned a great deal! Thanks so much, Tim!!!
It's okay. I kept running into a lot of errors despite following the code exactly :(
In class Block(Object)
The line no. 131 shows a error : TypeError: object.__init__() takes exactly one argument (the instance to initialize)

This is a great introduction to python for gaming.
I watch Pygame tutorials so I can build my game in C SDL2 - it's literally the same library.
Thanks, that's good to know.
just when I close the application, appears to me the 'blue' blackground, instead of this appears black, why?

Use "topleft" not "topLeft", I had the same problem but looking through the PyGame documentation helped with that.

Throrougly enjoying this so far❤❤❤🎉
i could not under stand hoe the loading of the sprites worked
How can I find the continuation of your tutorial about the platformer game?
Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooow
For some reason whenever my character touches the ground it keeps bouncing on it, i double check the code with the one Tim had and I can't find the problem, anyone have any idea what could cause it?
i changed my sprite to something with other dimension (200x200) and seem to be encountering the same thing
lmk if you find something to fix this
How can u run the file with a lot of problems I have one and it just crashes does anybody know how to fix it I installed the pygame module but it still didn't work
"Hi, guys I am here to teach you pixel perfect collision, except its not going to be pixel perfect cause you know .... hacks instead of fixing bugs"
I love this work! I am currently working on a similar game for uni, does anybody know how i could make those sprites myself? Any tool recommendations?
I cant RUN, i mean, everything's fine, even the RUN.png loaded, but it doesn't run when it runs(?)
After creating the background my separate window just keeps shutting down and I figure out why?
Can i see your code? and is there any error that showed up?
The gravity implementation in this code is awfull. It hurts knowing that it could be impremented with just 2 lines of code.
Every frame add 1 to y velocity, if on ground set y velocity to 0.

You can check this by adding print(sprite_sheet)
I cant believe this isnt in the comments. did everyone fallow line by line XD ?? hahaha no one tried different assets/animations....
in Generating the backround, how in line 40 you make two variables take 2 values if there is only one? im having this error: ValueError: too many values to unpack (expected 2)
This is great but some visual explanation would help next time something similar to networkchuck but without the over-the-top energy.
Hello👋, I will try to help if you have problem with the code.

can you describe the error i might be able to help
@@linusyong4731 i'm having the same issue. it just says 'Plater" object has no attribute 'draw'

The assets list makes it seeem like there is way more than this that you didnt go over. Its like this is a part 1 that never got a part 2
assets , lists are just ways to bring images and other animations into code since you cant really make them in python besides creating turles etc. U make these in things like a sprite maker online or anything with the correct scale.
@@lm2thed142 I'm aware of that. I'm talking about the assets themselves suggesting there is more to this, such as assets for enemies

what is a SDL wrapper?

"Jesse, we need to code"
It’s blurry for me
This game looks like Growtopia, we need a growtopia 2.0
Where to get the enemies? says link in project page, but no link.
Amazing
There are no main.py when i downloaded it
tim says for intermediate programmers but video title says for beginners.
It's so laggy (yes my laptop is old) even for just a simple platformer game. Definitely pygame is not an engine for serious commercial game.

For commercial games you should really be looking at Java as a minimum or a compiled language like C++. Of course, they are going to be much more work to get a game that even does what this does.

This video seems cool but I've run into a problem. I'm on the part where we're making the window. when I tried to run the code I wrote and the tutorial code, it said " Traceback (most recent call last):

main should have double underscores around it
yeah it should look like this: if __name__ == "__main__":
CAN I MAKE GAME LIKE THIS TO ANDROID MOBILE PHONE AND RELEASE THEM IN GOOGLE STORE?
Tried the code from the GH repository. When you run to a side, why is it so visible that the scrolling of the floor is not smooth at all?
Its probably because the width and height are too big, try scaling it down a bit
Thanks! It was fun but it works very laggy on my computer (and I don't know why, it's a good computer).
This is excellent!
Thanks.
Love this ❤
Omg yay! I can’t wait to try this
Excellent tutorial mate!
