Another great tutorial! Thanks for all the content, my programming journey is off to a fun start because of your work.

[@CodingIsFun]

This looks great! Thank you for the tutorial! 👍

[@tomkmb4120]

Great tutorial, thanks so much. It just goes to show how such a 'simple' game seemingly to the user can still require a lot of thought, consideration and planning for what it is.

[@gawan3390]

Amazing video as always! Keep the nice work up! :D

[@pranavxd4606]

Love your videos. Especially your cloning and ursina. Love to see more of ursina though!!!

[@yourlinuxguy]

Really Nice, video and clean code.

[@sonoel97]

Really neat joke there in 7:51, caught me off guard 🤣

[@sulai2279]

Hey love your videos! Got a question what's the purpose of the Game class? isn't the same to write that part of the code outside of a class?

[@centycebra4447]

then you wont be able to use self. and also it makes the code cleaner and easier to access specific parts like if he wrote the rotate and animate code without classes it would be very complex to store all that code in variable because you cant call just some specific code you need to have a var or class for it hopefully you understand it

[@sudeshmalhotra848]

Very good tutorial but can you make a video for the road map of python so that I will not be confused while learning it

[@patrickslomian7423]

Hi , do you use an website to get the animations , or do you make them yourself ? Can you recommend a website for someone who doesn't want to play with Photoshop for example ?

[@yourlinuxguy]

Hey pal, did you find any of those websites your talking about?

[@patrickslomian7423]

@@yourlinuxguy hey, nope :(

[@mouadhachemi8051]

At 1:05:46 is that a new way of creating timers? or should I still use the method you explained in your Creating timers video?

[@lifegoesmon1066]

what codes can i add to create an intro screen?

[@sakthisivanesh6880]

Pls make vedio on how to convert py files into apk and exe

[@alphhs5260]

Is it different video than the one you had unlisted?

[@user-sl3qd1os7r]

omg thanks

[@lashprod9656]

what do you use to code?

[@qqlez]

he uses: language: python with pygame module text editor/IDE: sublime

[@sylvanfranklin6904]

You deserve way more views. Honestly I think pygame is just a very niche topic and it’s hurting your growth (not that I mind, but I want you to succeed)

[@anantchandak9574]

hey can you just make ursina game engine tutorial like you have done for pygame pls this video is too amazing

[@qqlez]

he's made 2 ursina tutorials here is the first one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/enm2g5SMmrarf80

[@JoelSantos75]

cool

[@jampong1562]

how to fix no module named pygame??

[@grafaelzs9726]

please make a metroidvania game

[@erentu2834]

why not in Ursina engine :( ?

[@HarbingerSh]

you shouldn't multiply gravity by delta twice

[@thomaspfaff1074]

I got an error with the scale factor. full_height = bg_image.get_height () * scale_factor full_width = bg_image.get_width () * scale_factor full_sized_image = pygame.transform.scale (bg_image, (full_width, full_height)) ->TypeError: integer argument expected, got float in line full_sized_image Your github game has also an error. Sorry Game over!

[@ClearCode]

I think the issue is that you are running an older version of pygame. If you want to fix it, change the last line to: full_sized_image = pygame.transform.scale (bg_image, (int(full_width), int(full_height)))

[@thomaspfaff1074]

@@ClearCode Yes, really. If updated Pygame and now this problem is over. Thank you. It works

[@informallogic6388]

@@thomaspfaff1074 No dice! I'm getting a similar issue, TypeError: 'float' object cannot be interpreted as an integer I've attempted full_height_int = math.ceil(full_height) full_width_int = math.ceil(full_width) full_sized_image = pygame.transform.scale(bg_image, (int(full_width_int), int(full_height_int))) ValueError: size needs to be (number width, number height) even full_width_int_doubled = (full_width_int * 2) self.image = pygame.Surface(full_width_int_doubled, full_height_int) ValueError: size needs to be (number width, number height) Fully updated pygame via pip

The author, please, I'm from Kazakhstan, I seem to have done everything right, but they say that there are no such game = Game () in the images folder. Can I contact you?
