Make games with Python

Learning to code your own shoot-'em-up game is infinitely more satisfying than beating any end-of-level boss.

This essential guide teaches how to develop games with Python and Pygame. Gain a better understanding of the games you play, and build the skills to create games of your own, including how to:

• Create shapes and paths
• Move sprites and detect collisions
• Handle keyboard, mouse, and gamepad input
• Add sound and music
• Simulate physics and forces

Tested to run on the latest Raspberry Pi hardware and operating system, the games and instructions in this book work on Windows, macOS, or Linux.
