Hahaha, how is it so hard to find programming education like this: the teacher actually spends time explaining concepts instead of explaining lines of code with fruits, colors, and animals while glossing over important material. You are a godsend.

[@MachineVersatile]

Seriously you do great job because: + explaining logical parts on seperate screen and then go into implententing + you make a chance to code by yourself + you just use simple drawing on screen to make code and logical parts more understandable + video is split on some smaller parts + tempo is accurate

[@stefotsufurema13]

Yeh thats right

[@costelinha1867]

I also like the fact that he makes videos talking about individual mechanics, as they can be used as ideas for smaller exercises for practising pygame.

for more experienced programmers, use 1.25x speed since u dont have to make sure u catch and understand everythin

[@nowifi3266]

@Ar! / Penyuin i meant that clear code is explaining eveyrhting so sometimes for more experienced programmers, if you put the speed to 1.25, you can go through a bit faster without worrying ur missing things. if u dont understand what clear code is saying, u dont have to set the speed to 1.25... it was just a suggestion

[@Jack_______oh]

I'm halfway through and I really appreciate your teaching style. You move quickly but explain everything and why you're doing it. I'm trying to make a top down RPG game so I find it helpful to learn from a tutorial that's doing something different so i have to actually think about the concepts.

I just turned 60, I've been a technologist my entire adult life and have taught many "programming" courses (proprietary languages) for several fortune 100 companies but I'm relatively new to Python. I have to admit my first thought was, this person has a lot of nerve putting out an almost 4 hour video on the subject. I have to admit, when you're good, you're good and you are really good. I did the entire 3:47:57 over the course of 3 days and I got lost one time, _init_ instead of double underscores __init__. That's it. That was the one thing I screwed up, otherwise I learned a ton of new stuff and I'm, really pleased with how it all worked out. In my experience, it's pretty rare in these type of videos for the finished product to look like the author intended but you nailed it. Can't wait to learn more from you. Thanks! All the best, Dennis.

[@matyaspolzer5887]

Thanks to your comment i was able to find out why did the code reached a recursion limit- i wrote init with two Ns 🫠

[@kirannambiar1883]

Hi Clear Code. I have been having a problem in this tutorial recently. At 1:21:17 in the tutorial, you are making a bigger rectangle relative to a already declared rectangle using the width parameter in the draw method. When you did this, it added a border instead of a rectangle, and it was larger than if you drew the rectangle without a border. The border was also hollow, so you put in another rectangle to fill in the space. In pygame version 2.1.1, I think this was changed, and when you try to put a border now, the border wont be larger than the original rectangle, it will fill in the rectangle a bit instead, leaving part of the center hollow. This means you can't make the rectangle bigger relative to another rectangle using this method. Do you have any other idea of how to do this instead? Edit: I finally realized there was a thing called the INFALTE method. I didn't realize that lol hahah

[@Dracanus1]

Hey, where did you use the inflate method? For me it's not working properly.

[@LemonPengu18]

@@Dracanus1 To make the rectangle bigger now, you can type the next line pygame.draw.rect(screen,'Pink',score_rect.inflate(10,10)) The numbers are x and y respectively. It can be changed however you like.

@@LemonPengu18 - This seems to work - On Linux running pygame 2.1.2 (SDL 2.0.20, Python 3.10.6) It feels like it should throw some kind of deprecation warning, because this probably breaks existing code (as if Python 3 didn't break existing code...) Thanks.

[@viatori5566]

For anyone wondering about the inflate method and how to get your boarder to round, the documentation covers that under drawing rectangles. What I ended up using was this: pygame.draw.rect(screen, 'Pink', score_rect.inflate(12, 12), border_radius=10) Edit: As far as I can tell you can do this with just one line. You dont need one with and one without.

[@michaelculley5607]

First of all, thank you for putting so much time into this. I really learned alot from your tutorial. I'd like to provide you with some constructive criticism if I may. Take it from a guy who watched all 4 hours of this. I appreciate how thorough you were and how you walked us through your thinking and mindset. However, you really started to lose me in the end and following this tutorial became painful. Many times you would go so fast and then test the game that I'd have to rewind and often I missed steps because you went so fast. I mustve had at least 20-30 errors that I had to figure out on my own because I was trying to keep up with you so much that I wasn't really paying attention to what I was doing. That also makes it very difficult to learn. I understand this isn't for the beginner but if that's the case, you shouldnt have did everything so manually at first then make it so simple at the end. All the back and forth had me losing track and it was very scatter brained. All that being said, I still do think you did a great job but in the future perhaps consider your audience and how they may be slower than you. Give them time to catch up before scrolling down 90 lines then scrolling back up 50 lines etc. Also maybe plan the video better ahead of time so it's not so all over the place. You still earned my like and sub.

dude such a start and general attitude, great lecture for both practical and theoritical aspects! keep up! seriously so good!

"Please dont call the code right now" Me who already did that: -_-

if you have the "no video mode has been set" problem, at 3:15:10 You need to create your player (3:14:15) AFTER you define your screen: (screen = pygame.display.set_mode(x, y))

thanks a lot dude,I was so frustrated because of this issue

This tutorial left me actually wanting to come back after taking breaks every like 45 mins, and you explain it really well!

[@alexeilazarev9576]

Thank you very match, Sir! Started watching your video as complete zero in pygame. Walked all the way through by hands and finished as someone who can do something. You are an amazing teacher. All the best wishes to you!

[@Kirjahri2]

what does a pygame developer say when they epically pwn someone in a video game?!? get_rect!!! xD (i am being held hostage in haiti by local gang members please help me)

[@yoAntosss]

You are such a great teacher! Giving examples and time to do it on our own helps with the learning and lets us use what we already know. Thank you!

[@vaclavhanzl8193]

I was watching the video and asking one question.. Why nobody shows in these tutorials how to work with OOP... Than I got to the end of the video and I have to say, this is the best video on PyGame I watched so far ... THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I finally learnt something and I FINALLY understand the OOP better now.

[@ryanfrancis2113]

You should check out DaFluffyPotato's pygame tutorials

[@AndreasJohannessen]

Awesome video! Tip to anyone reading this comment: At 2:35:15 you don't need to add the "else: return []". Instead, simply detent the first return statement once (hit backspace). Since we initialize the list to an empty list to begin with, the method will continue to return the empty list until it is updated.

[@DevmanGame]

its unbelievable how you used your 3 hours of your day to help your viewers code on pygame. you had 3 hours to do anything you wanted to, but you decided to help us ☺ ☺ thank you.

[@arthurmott2800]

Dude I have been following you're tutorials for a while and they are fire keep up with the good work! :)

[@oldspice105]

Amazing video, I've now added your Zelda and mario videos to a playlist and will be following along! I'm especcially excited for the Zelda clone video!! The best thing about your explanations is this; when you wanted to add a new feature you added it in a easy way just to get it in the code, but the more complex the game got, you had to go back and update the previous code so it worked or was more effcient. I really found this actually showed the workflow of a gamedev and it was great to see! Its a great lesson because it teaches different techniques but also allows creativity to blossom. Amazing work!

[@jakekitzmann2288]

This is hands down the best programming tutorial I've ever encountered. Thank you so much!!!

[@LynAthras]

Huge thanks for such a wonderful introduction not only to the pygame module but also to the world of gamemaking! You're great!

[@Akh608]

This was a great introduction to pygame. It might get a bit confusing towards the end, but it actually helped me a lot as it was my first time using pygame and found it quite clear in explaining each of the things we were doing. In these more complicated parts, it was actually enough to simply pause it or even replay that part to understand what was happening. Even the part which can be a bit more confusing, it actually helps to understand and "build the ideas up". Thank you so much for this.

[@mcstudios9585]

thanks for the great tutorial haven't seen a better one yet!! my brain hurts now because of all the annoying mistakes that I made. You're definitely my favourite programming channel so far :)

[@Ellie-pc4rc]

I learnt a little python 3 years ago, but then switched to c#. Having coded with c# since then and probably completely forgotten all the python syntax, I’m ready to jump back into python, and this seems like a good start !

[@MathewRYF]

This tutorial was really helpful for getting me back into python after not using it for a full semester. I'm going to be practicing my coding as often as I can for the rest of the year.

[@willernst]

I'm new to the channel, and absolutely impressed with the quality. The pacing and detail of this video; course, really; is phenomenal. Great job!
