@@TheRealLyonic well said ... trigonometry also isn't objectively "difficult" to use in programming, you're just calling a function and letting it do all the calculations for you. The only important thing is to know why and when you need to call a particular function and what part of the result matters to you. Someone who needs to know can learn it by reading some simple rules about trigonometry and what the terminology means. But in no way is trigonometry connected to how good of a programmer someone is, unless they work in a very specific field where it's critically important. I'm DirectX/C++ programming and Unity/C# development (which is considerably more complex) I only used trigonometry in a few isolated cases where I found some novel use for the properties of triangles, like determining how high off a ground an object will be if it's rotated about an axis X-distance away from by so many radians. That guy's comment reads like someone with no dev experience trying to sound like an elitist expert by tossing around some things that sound intimidating and pretending to understand them lol.
@@GameDevNerd I agree completely! And appreciate the well-thought out reply. Also, I respect the DirectX/C++ programming stuff, I focus more on Java and the Web Development tools (HTML, CSS, and Javascript), and always found that stuff to be a bit complicated for my understanding. Though, I will say, I actually worked in Unity with C# for a while too a good bit ago, which was relatively easy to migrate into language wise, since Java and C# are almost the exact same language in terms of Syntax. Though it did take a while for me to learn the ins and outs of Unity as a game engine, working with Rigidbodies and all the other various elements in a game.

This has to be the most useful learn-by-doing Pygame tutorial I've seen. You start with the basics, explain what you want to do and how Pygame allows you to do it, and work it in with concepts a learning programmer should be aware of, without jumping right into the more complex aspects.
1:35:00 For collision detection pygame actually has a method called 'colliderect' which detects collision between rectangles. So, if you want to check if the enemy rectangle has collided with the bullet rectangle, instead of checking the distance between the two for every frame, you just write: if enemy_rectangle.colliderect(bullet_rectangle) [whatever you want to do when the enemy collides with a bullet, or vice versa] Hope this helps
I imagine you might not be monitoring the comments anymore by now, but I'm finding this really helpful! I have to try to help some students pick up some programming skills, and this tutorial is great! The detail that you go into about why things have to be the way they are is very helpful. Thanks!
In my few months of learning coding this video has brought a lot of positive vibe to me as i finally got the feeling of creating something solid real thank you

@@Avighna Actually like it is annoying because for coding we Indians have only watched tutorials by foreigners and we get addicted to that sound. Plus Indian accent if heard on devices is very annoying to be it anyone. NotRude
1:06:00 these 2 conditions can be simplified as if enemyX = 736: enemyDx = -enemyDx enemyY += enemyDy this way the enemy speed value can be modified in the global only instead of changing in 3 different places
@@adhirajsingh1806You don't have to. He already changed the movement direction. For example, enemy approach a border and turn back instantly and go to opposite direction with the same speed.
Fantastic... one of the best tutorial I have seen ... if maybe a bit too detailed for me (with a bit of experience in programming you can fast forward some parts even if you are a beginner in python as me). One comment on something I found missing. For the continuous movement of the spaceship to function properly I had to add apygame.key.set_repeat(10) in the initialization part. Without it, it would only take one keystroke at a time (took me one hour to understand why it didn't work as shown on the screen.

PNG file image is not loading in mine, the image does not get loaded, when I try to run the code, it shows "Unsupported Image Format" !! What should I do ??
technically this would place the left edge of playerImg at center. to align the center of playerImg at the center of the screen you'd need: playerX = screen.get_width() / 2 - playerImg.get_width() / 2
Please answer my question that how do i add image underneath main.py like how you did it my image adds next main.py and when i wrote this player = pygame.image.load('spaceship.png') it says this file is not here and even though i added the image next to it
I have a problem. When both the left and the right keys are pressed, the ship moves towards the direction which was instructed last. But when any one of the 2 keys are released, the ship stops. I need it to move towards the pressed key's direction
instead of using events use the pygame.key.get_pressed() method by doing this in the while loop keys = pygame.key.get_pressed() if keys[pygame.K_LEFT]: playerX -= player_vel elif keys[pygame.K_RIGHT]: playerX += player_vel and it should work

If I then release the left key, it switches to go right. However, If I hold down the left key and keep it held down AND THEN hold down the right key (or press the right key) it just keeps on going left... Please please help, I can't wrap my head around a solution.
For those encountering problem while closing game window: event.QUIT only checks whether quit button has been pressed or not. To quit python you need to set loop condition as False. This sometimes causes problems. So, first quit the pygame window, exit the program and then close python. Code: //at top from sys import exit //rest of the code is same //in the if condition: "event.type == pygame.QUIT" pygame.quit() exit() running = False
At 17:43, he said something wrong. The less the value of a certain colour is, the darker it is not the lighter. Just correcting it for you guys out there so u dont get confusef

My enemies were so big they were spawning off screen with a small portion of them on screen.
I'm only at the part where you make the game window but keep getting an error despite doing exactly as shown in the video. I don't know how to fix it if it's pycharm being broken or some such this is the error (and yes I have pygame installed) line 13, in if event.type == pygame.QUIT(): TypeError: 'int' object is not callable edit: I rewatched for a 5th time and saw what I did wrong haha!

[1:36:20] I would have instead used: if 0 < bulletX - enemyX < 32 and 0 < bulletY - enemyY < 32: as that makes sure the bullet is touching the enemy, since the enemy is a square and not a quarter circle. Edit: You could also use bullet.get_rect() and enemy.get_rect to then check for collisions using pygame.sprite.groupcollide() or pygame.sprite.spritecollideany()

Best way to learn when watching these videos for me at least was to watch each section, example: displaying the window, adding icon. Then go and try it yourself without re watching that section. If you run into a problem remembering what he typed just go look it up and search around instead of just re-watching what he typed out. Thank you for these videos!
well this is one of the best tutorials that I've seen. It's so easy to understand and well-explained also those recaps after each lesson are so awesome Thank you so much 🙏🙏
If you are coding in jupyter and it is telling you that no 'pygame' module is available, you need to install it manually. Go to anaconda shell and type "pip install pygame". After completion check again and see if it works.
Tip: If for whatever reason you cant set a variable to true, set it to 0 or 1 and do while running == 0: thingy.do_some_crap Edit: Frick me nvm you have to capitalize true or false
Awesome Tutorial! Thank you for the spread of your knowledge! Super grateful for people like you who take the time to explain how and why it works and why it does not!

Great tutorial! After watching I made it so the enemies could fire bullets to make it a bit more interesting
Just to Clarify would you take the spaceships shooting speed and then put it on an enemy sorry for asking a stupid question I am New to Python
how did u set at what place the bullets will spawn?

PNG file image is not loading in mine, the image does not get loaded, when I try to run the code, it shows "Unsupported Image Format" !! What should I do ??
Thank you so much Sir..... After 5 days i have created this game with the help of your video.....

To center player along x-axis can also be auto-calculated instead of hardcoding playerX = 370
playerX = screen.get_width() / 2
technically this would place the left edge of playerImg at center. to align the center of playerImg at the center of the screen you'd need:
playerX = screen.get_width() / 2 - playerImg.get_width() / 2
completed the tutorial. Yayyy! thanks for the amazing tutorial.

Totally true for me 'coz I pause and type in the same code after he adds a word to his code - gotta stop doing that though
good job

Please answer my question that how do i add image underneath main.py like how you did it my image adds next main.py and when i wrote this player = pygame.image.load('spaceship.png') it says this file is not here and even though i added the image next to it
Go to the file of your python project and paste the img
I have a problem. When both the left and the right keys are pressed, the ship moves towards the direction which was instructed last. But when any one of the 2 keys are released, the ship stops. I need it to move towards the pressed key's direction
bro meri bhi same problem h
Me too, please, if you find a solution - or anybody else. PLEASE. Post it here. I've been trying all sorts of things and none of it seems to work...
instead of using events use the pygame.key.get_pressed() method by doing this
in the while loop
keys = pygame.key.get_pressed()
if keys[pygame.K_LEFT]:
playerX -= player_vel
elif keys[pygame.K_RIGHT]:
playerX += player_vel
and it should work
@@yuvraj6013 Hi, please help me. My problem is this:
If I hold down the right key and keep it held down AND THEN hold down the left key, it switches to go left. If I then release the left key, it switches to go right.
However,
If I hold down the left key and keep it held down AND THEN hold down the right key (or press the right key) it just keeps on going left... Please please help, I can't wrap my head around a solution.
Getting your Oscar ready.
It was like a damn good crash course.
For those encountering problem while closing game window:
event.QUIT only checks whether quit button has been pressed or not. To quit python you need to set loop condition as False. This sometimes causes problems. So, first quit the pygame window, exit the program and then close python.
Code:
//at top
from sys import exit
//rest of the code is same
//in the if condition: "event.type == pygame.QUIT"
pygame.quit()
exit()
running = False
thanks for the tips :)
At 17:43, he said something wrong.
The less the value of a certain colour is, the darker it is not the lighter. Just correcting it for you guys out there so u dont get confusef
Tip : those who can't get the image or logo in pygame window, just add the png in the folder where ur game's/.py file is
Also if we have a path that involves back slash rather than typing one type 2 backslash. Like C:\\Users\
ame\\game\\pic.png
dont know if im doing things incorrectly, but "is" doesnt work for me and instead I use ==
pygame is really cool when it comes to 2-D game development
True Story.
@A Google User why not 3D
16:00 one problem i had was the icon was too big, so instead it just displayed the python logo, to fix this change it to around 32x32
# Enemy
enemyimg = []
enemyX = []
enemyY = []
enemyX_change = []
enemyY_change = []
num_of_enemies = 10
for i in range(num_of_enemies):
enemyimg = pygame.image.load("alien.png")
enemyimg = pygame.transform.scale(enemyimg, (64, 64))
enemyX.append(random.randint(0, 735))
enemyY.append(random.randint(50, 150))
enemyX_change.append(2)
enemyY_change.append(40)
This is what my code looked like to accommodate for a different sized picture. My enemies were so big they were spawning off screen with a small portion of them on screen.
this video is helping alot and for my other i games
I'm only at the part where you make the game window but keep getting an error despite doing exactly as shown in the video. I don't know how to fix it if it's pycharm being broken or some such
this is the error (and yes I have pygame installed)
line 13, in
if event.type == pygame.QUIT():
TypeError: 'int' object is not callable
edit: I rewatched for a 5th time and saw what I did wrong haha! The brackets should have been removed
yeah, was about to day that
you can just delete () after QUIT and all right 😉😉

When im at the section: if bullet is "fire": I get the syntaxWarning "is" with a literal. Did you mean "=="? I can't play the bullet. What I'm I doing wrong?
He is using an older version of Python, just add == instead of “is” and it should work.

Thank you! Been looking for a way to create multiple enemies. We were using the Actor framework but with a bit of help with bing I managed to make a matrix of actors and used things like bird = [] and bird[i].x etc thanks!
[1:36:20] I would have instead used:
if 0 < bulletX - enemyX < 32 and 0 < bulletY - enemyY < 32:
as that makes sure the bullet is touching the enemy, since the enemy is a square and not a quarter circle.
Edit: You could also use bullet.get_rect() and enemy.get_rect to then check for collisions using pygame.sprite.groupcollide() or pygame.sprite.spritecollideany()
Can you please help me? it looks like you know what is happening in this game. I got at the part when shooting multiple bullets but I can only shot one and that's it. Also when I try to type if bullet_syate IS ready it doesn't let me. It say syntax error and that I can't use it with a string. PLS HELP! i'm not native
@@paula19335 change to bullet_state == "ready", same with below code, bullet_state == "fire"
Once you get the below lines to work you will be golden!
if bullet_state == "ready"
bulletX = playerX
fire_bullet(playerX, rocketY)
1:03:00 Sorry for the mistakes in English (I'm French). Yes there is a way to do it quicker. You select the block you want to change. You go to Edit > Search > Replace you press Ctrl + R to replace only things that are in selection. Then you type player in the search field and enemy in the replace field. Please like so as many as possible know this trick.

Even I am stuck there please help
ever figure it out?

also me: sees somone have a link to 40 mins in
also also me: checks how long video is

Wait, did u not c the huge "learn python in 2 hours" ?
Thank you for this best tutorial ever for making python game
Best way to learn when watching these videos for me at least was to watch each section, example: displaying the window, adding icon. Then go and try it yourself without re watching that section. If you run into a problem remembering what he typed just go look it up and search around instead of just re-watching what he typed out. Thank you for these videos!
well this is one of the best tutorials that I've seen.
It's so easy to understand and well-explained also those recaps after each lesson are so awesome
Thank you so much 🙏🙏
If you are coding in jupyter and it is telling you that no 'pygame' module is available, you need to install it manually.
Go to anaconda shell and type "pip install pygame". After completion check again and see if it works.
Tip:
If for whatever reason you cant set a variable to true, set it to 0 or 1 and do
while running == 0:
thingy.do_some_crap
Edit:
Frick me nvm you have to capitalize true or false
hahaahahahah underrated comment
Awesome Tutorial! Thank you for the spread of your knowledge! Super grateful for people like you who take the time to explain how and why it works and why it does not! That is definitely good teaching practices! I wish my CS teachers were as good as you when it comes to explaining the internals of code! Much appreciated! Take care!
