Learn how to code Arcade games in Python!

What you'll learn

Learn the fundamentals of writing 2D Arcade games in Python
Understand basic collision detection, collision resolution for top-down, ball-bouncing, and platformer games
Write games such as Tank Attacks, Brick-Breaker, Platformer Game(like Super Mario), Tetris

Requirements

Basic Knowledge of Python(Crash Course Python notes available)

Description

Learn how to code Arcade games in Python! We will use the Python Arcade Library to code games. Arcade is a very easy to use library. It is more intuitive, requires less boiler-plate code and more Pythonic than Pygame. The library has many contributors on Github and is actively maintained with almost daily updates.

Learn to code the following games:

1) Tank Attacks: A top-down tank shooting game.

2) Brick Breaker: Classic brick breaker game.

3) Platformer Game: A Mario-like side-scrolling platformer game(side scrolling, with climbing ladders and moving platforms). This game is written from scratch; we implement all of the platformer collisions and resolution without using any physics library.

4) Tetris.

And more to come soon!

We will learn the fundamentals of writing arcade games including:

1) Drawing basic shapes

2) Basic Animation

3) Keyboard and Mouse inputs

4) Working with Images and Sprites

5) Animating Characters/Sprites

6) Basic Collision Detection

7) Resolving Wall Collisions for Top-Down Games

8) Shoot Bullets, Aim and Shoot at Angle.

9) Scrolling

10) Simulating Explosions

11) Adding Sounds

12) Using Tiled Map Editor to Create Game Maps/Worlds

13) Implementing from scratch Ball-Brick Collisions for Brick-Breaker Game

14) Write a Platformer Game like Super Mario from Scratch(side scrolling, with climbing ladders and moving platforms)

15) Learn how to write Tetris from scratch!
