Simple Python Turtle Graphics Game (Part 1)

[@disneyfannrkrb]

Omg game programming tutorials without having to learn a complicated engine along with programming consepts, thank you !!!how do u not have a million subs?

[@p0part299]

For anyone who is having trouble with the delay instead of putting delay = raw_input() Instead use delay = input() This seemed to fix the problem for me

Thanks! This is one difference between Python 2 and Python 3.

[@MarkFidell]

@@TokyoEdTech I've just discovered your videos and was really enjoying your style and approach, but I've just read this and feel a bit disappointed. If you take the time to reply, at least be constructive. The person asking this question might not know that this is the same in both versions and being a noob worries that they might be learning the wrong thing. They might have meant can "They" change to using version 3 and it still work. A simple, helpful, response or no response would have been better than a sarcastic one that might put that person of asking questions or even feel the IT industry is hostile to new comers. After all the work you put into these videos I think you've let yourself down with this response.

[@MarkFidell]

@Noob times Pro Noob time Pro - Yes you can do this using Python3, I think :) - I'm a 20+ year IT vet, having done Cobol, Pascal, Delphi, C, Java, C++, Assembler, you name it, but just learning Python myself, we all have to start somewhere right, so I could be wrong, but I've just run through this with 3.9.5 and it worked exactly as expected.

[@TokyoEdTech]

@@MarkFidell Hi Mark. Thanks for the thoughtful feedback. Your point is well-taken. For a little context, I respond to all or nearly all requests for help. According to KZbin, I responded to around 7000 comments last year - that's 20 comments a day, every day for a year. My previous years were similar. Most people who post for help are polite and provide helpful information so that I can help. And most are appreciative. However, there is a small group that is hostile, demanding, or just plain annoying. I do occasionally let my exasperation show as I did above. If the person had written back with clarification, I would have been more helpful. Anyhoo, I'm human and I'm doing my best. Thanks again for the comment - I do appreciate and agree with it.
