[@knut-olaihelgesen3608]

Here is how to fix the problem where it prints weird color codes: 1) import os 2) os.system("")

[@orkslayergamedev]

Indeed! Thanks for the fix! 🙏🏻

This is a great tutorial. I did this with my class they liked it as well.

[@orkslayergamedev]

Thanks so much! I'm really glad to hear that your class enjoyed it as well 😊

Learned a lot from this, thanks you. Hope you continue making videos. Great editing and good choice of video length.

[@orkslayergamedev]

Thanks for leaving a feedback, I really appreciate it! 🙏🏻 I'll keep coming up with various content and tutorials about smaller games and features made with Python / Pygame.

[@relytheone853]

Your tutorial is pure gold!

[@orkslayergamedev]

Thank you very much, I really appreciate it! 🙏🏻

Just started learning python. Best Tutorials! Keep it up bro!

[@orkslayergamedev]

Thank you for your kind words! Good luck with learning Python, hope to see you around! 🐍🙌🏻

[@8-bite393]

Another like is out! I am learning to use python and your videos helps me a lot. Pls more of these kind of vids! Thx 🙏

[@orkslayergamedev]

Thank you very much! New videos coming soon 🙌 The upcoming ones include particles ✨ with Pygame and random map generation 🗺️ with both ASCII and and Pygame graphics. Hope you'll find these ones useful!

[@GamingGuruImMortaL]

Really liked the editing, it's definitely a level up from all the previous videos🥳

[@orkslayergamedev]

Thank you! 😁 I revisited my older tutorials before this one and they looked very unprofessional... I'm happy that the difference is noticeable now!

[@jogalysyndrone1316]

love your game tutorial series!! also, do you by any chance have your bane of orks source code? there was a lot of features that were there that i wanted to replicate but couldn't because of my limited python knowledge. thanks again!!

[@orkslayergamedev]

Thank you very much! 🙏🏻 I'm not sure if I can get access to my older codes yet - thanks to moving twice and having my main pc gather dust in the basement - but I'll try to look it up 🤞🏻 Until that feel free to drop any question about the features if you'd like :)

[@jogalysyndrone1316]

@@orkslayergamedev Okay! the main feature i wanted to integrate in my game was having a map with a movable character. in your game, the character is marked by a red X and is responsive when you move through areas. thats the main feature i wanted to add but couldnt :(

[@orkslayergamedev]

​@@jogalysyndrone1316 No problem, mate! I couldn't find my Bane of Orks script so I replicated the feature in a minimalistic project. Feel free to use it and lmk if you have any questions :) github.com/orkslayergamedev/2d-map-movement

[@jogalysyndrone1316]

@@orkslayergamedev thank you so much. this makes me extremely happy because i love creating small ascii games for my friends to play. i have one small question though. how come the functions has a "-> none:"? I remember in your game tutorial that that was unnecesarry. just curious, my python knowledge isnt very good. thanks again!!

[@orkslayergamedev]

@@jogalysyndrone1316 Your welcome! I'm happy to hear this :) And you're right, giving type hints for arguments and return values are not required at all, codes can run without them just as fine. Although I find it better to indicate them, as it makes code more readable and reduces the chance of bugs. If you use code checkers, they can warn you if the argument you give as inputs or the returned values have different types than expected. So, if the function returns nothing, we can indicate it with -> None. That's it :)

here is the full bar icon he used █

[@Deva15688]

how can I do the symbol?

[@orkslayergamedev]

On windows you can hold left Alt and type a number on the numpad to get any symbol from the ASCII table. Here you can find all: theasciicode.com.ar Although for me it's faster to just copy-paste from this site :)

[@dieginin]

whats the ide you’re using?

[@orkslayergamedev]

I'm using PyCharm for about 4 years now and I can bravely recommend it! 🚀

[@sh_4016]

The intro was really smooth but the style doesn't really fit your avatar, what i ment: you could try some other intro that has the same style as the background of your pfp. Just a quick feedback from me👍 have a nice day

[@orkslayergamedev]

Hey, thanks a lot for the detailed feedback! My friend also told me that it was the smoothest intro of mine. I'm still experimenting, maybe one day I find a really good intro that totally fits the theme. Thanks again, you too have a nice day!
