Dive into Python game development by creating your own Space Invaders clone! Perfect for beginners and those looking to enhance their programming skills.
Build your own Space Invaders clone and level up your Python skills! This course is all about making game development fun and easy to understand, with hands-on projects and plenty of support.
Learn the basics of Python game development while you create your very own Space Invaders clone using Python 3.
This course has over 50 lectures, is 4+ hours long and is only $25
Are you ready to save the earth from invaders from the planet python? If so, then you can take your Python skills from basic to advanced by creating a fully featured and professional Space Invaders clone called Invaders from Python.
This course is the follow-up to my hugely successful Python 3: A Beginners Quick Start Guide to Python and will take you the student from knowing the basics of the Python programming language and walk you through creating your very own Python game.
Along your journey you will learn:
The basic structure for a game written in Pygame
Python modules to manage graphics and animation
How to install Homebrew and Pygame
How to add images to your games
Make game objects move on screen
Refactoring and bug checking
How to respond to game events such as mouse and key presses
How to interact between different elements of your game
What are and use nested loops
How to create different levels of your game to make it more challenging
Add a score board and players high scores
And more...
This course has over 50 lectures and is 4+ hours long. You will start with a blank Python file and when you are finished you will have the skills to create and develop many more games and programmes as the skills you learn here are not just for game development.
Projects in Python is intended for those who already have a working knowledge of Python programming or general programming, and who want to apply their skills to games development. However, beginners may still be able to follow the course too.
The main learning drive in this course is in helping you to create your very own Space Invaders clone called Invaders from Python. Each lecture is like a level within a video game, as you move through the course you will be introduced to more and more advanced topics.
The skills you picked up along the way will give you a solid groundwork for creating bigger, more complex, and more versatile games that can be run on any platform or any operating system.
This course is fun and challenging and I am always on hand to answer questions and help out.
Best of luck!
Create a fully featured and working game in Python which you can use for you portfolio.
Take your new knowledge and create more advanced games.
Advance their current knowledge of Python to take on larger more complicated projects.

Hi! I'm Tony. I love to read, write and teach and you could definitely call me a bit of geek. I love all things to do with programming, productivity, books and the internet.Previously I have run my own software business and won several awards from, most innovative startup to best product. After finding out the hard way just how stressful...
Hard to see text, where I can duplicate the code for myself. Explaining the code while he is typing instead of after making several changes would be helpful.
Very clear explanation and gets right to the coding without a lot of theory etc
I really appreciate just being walked through an example from start to finish. I get a better understanding of things by seeing them in action rather than just talking about the concepts and being asked to use them on my own.
Lektionen fehlen, Kurs-Material nur bis Lektion 15 von 53 angefügt, was den Kurs gerade bei den zahlreichen Code-Beispielen komplett unbrauchbar macht. Dozent reagiert nicht auf zurecht gestellte Fragen, ohne deren Beantwortung der produzierte Code nicht lauffähig ist.
Aber der Dozent hat 'nen sĂĽĂźen irischen Akzent.
The professor doesn't explain what he is doing.
awesome...…….
Lectures have mistakes and instructor says he will answer questions in the Q&A but never responds
Explanations are clear and concise
The course is excellent, but it could benefit from having larger text in the recordings. I am coding along with the videos and find it difficult to see the code in the videos properly when I use split screen. I am really impressed by the thorough explanations given by the presenter - I am able to follow everything despite being a serious code noob (I've only been coding for 2 weeks now).
