I got an import error: cannot import name 'Spritesheet' from 'spritesheet', also pygame has no init, QUIT and KEYDOWN, I don't know if you could help me find out why I get those

You sound like a younger @DavesGarage! Also… the moving chimp pygame starter tutorial, how to forget it haha

I rather make my own game engine, not use someone else's, I prefer something that's custom tailored to my needs that I've designed from the ground up & thus have a deep understanding of, plus most game engines are poorly optimized, & doing things yourself is much funner anyway! =)

3:01 was not expecting melee in this video at all.

Pygame was my entry to game development, teached me a lot of programming and game design, today I use mostly C and OpenGL but for simpler projects I use LÖVE or pygame.

Never really like programming much. I'm "ok" at it, but it's never really interested me all that much.

5:29 Oh hey, there I am!

Can't believe you only have 3 thousand subscribers. You deserve way more for the quality of your content.

I love Pygame! Yes, I love suffering.

As a relatively novice and self-taught Data Scientist who's been considering Pygame as a way to improve my foundational understanding of Python, this is exactly what I needed to hear to keep myself motivated to get through more Pygame courses/tutorials. Great video!

python was always the easiest way to get into something ngl

Game engines are a great way to learn about programming. Back when I was an high school student I really wanted to create videogames so I started using Game Maker, by the time I actually had to learn a programming language at school I already had a good understanding of some of the basic concepts and I was really motivated to learn more. Years later knowing how to code helped me with my PhD and post-doc since I was able to automate a lot of repetitive and time consuming data processing tasks. Also, I think Python is a good choice to start learning.

0:09 don't worry looking at any python code gives people headaches

quite nice and inspirational video! Chill voice and vibes makes it pretty good to watch too.

I was able to create a multiplayer 2D "game" in the past two days using pygame and socket. It's just a very basic demo, players can join, move around and shoot eachother. But it felt soooo good to finally understand how all of this works. And I was also able to connect to the server outside of my network using my phone as a hotspot. I was thinkering around with Godot, raylib and ENet before but nothing worked. Now finally pygame or arcade are really easy to understand and run also very smooth.

Oh wow! I Just noticed that I previously saw your videos when me and my friends had to create a game in pygame for a school project. I used your tutorials to get into it at first. The project wasn't big at all but your videos for sure helped me/us :D

It's great to see a new video from you again after so long CD. I also entered the programing era of my life in 2017. Also started with my college going through classes to see what stuck. Then I took a break from coding for a few years to focus on learning improv though on my end. Then I found the gamedev community on youtube and twitch both got me the itch to re-enter programing yet again. I still do it as a hobby for the most part. I also started with Pygame for a couple years made a couple small sized games but never released. But now I've been learning godot and boy glad my basic python knowledge is helping me a bit on this journey since gdscript is somewhat similar structure. Hope things are going well.

Very well made video. I've lived through a similar software development journey. Fiddling in gamedev with less abstractions kind of unlocked my brain. I remember reading about how RegEx algorithms work leading to learning about Deterministic Finite Automata (Finite State Machine) and having an enlightenment moment after realizing how it could be applied to my old pygame space shooter shooter. Learning about some more concepts like Composition, Dependency Injection, Functional Programming, Errors as values, Traits (FP take on interfaces) etc; combined with my existing DSA knowledge and suddenly my code became way more organized & modular, and it finally feels like I know what I'm doing. Then there's also another type of hard theory such as Graphical Programming (knowing how things actually render), Computer Architecture, Networking (HTTP, TCP, how do your server and client communicate) etc. A lot of such knowledge enlightens the developer enough to cure the imposter syndrome and whatnot, but for some reason none of it is presented in a structured way in textbook form, and none of it is being taught in the mainstream media nor in the education field. Channels like yours are a gold mine for people who aren't lucky enough to stumble upon such obscure but incredibly important information by themselves

Bless up 🙏

Thank you

Thank you

Thank man

Terrific video on an important topic. Very helpful.

How do I scale

How do I work out what the values should be for my "self.left_border", "self.right_border" and "self.ground_y" variables? Also, in the Github files for this, it references a "self.box" variable, but it doesn't seem to do anything in the code. What is it used for?

I can't find the part where you define "player.ground_y", "player.left_border" or "player.right_border".

Thank you very much, bro! Excellent and clearly understandable example

yo is that visual code? or smth cuz i see it familiar

My spritesheet renderer doesn't use the JSON metadata, would it work if instead using the list [myspritesheet.parse_sprite("frame_1.png"),myspritesheet.parse_sprite("frame_2.png")... myspritesheet.parse_sprite("frame_n.png")] I were to instead use the list [myspritesheet.getsprite(x, y, w, h), myspritesheet.getsprite(x2, y2, w2, h2)... myspritesheet.getsprite(xn, yn, wn, hn)]

I followed all of the code (up to before the json part), but when I tried with my sprites, it didn't render them, and I can't figure out why.

Amazing

**then velocity change enters the room**

Hey I love it ❤ I am also in data science and I am wanting to learn to develop game. Can i know how you learnt the physics behind the game tutorial of pygame was it some books or some video. Pls recommend me some if you can

such an awesome tutorial.

Hi. I have an error saying: TypeError: object.__init__() takes exactly one argument (the instance to initialize)

Hey man I just finished my Cs project this video was a massive help and really boosted my confidence using json files and the concpet of spritesheets. Thank you sm !!!!

how would you create collison rect for a slope

after many videos, this is one of the best for learning sprite sheets as a complete beginner, thank you.

I am having difficulties getting this to work, there are also some files I'm noticing are in the program, but that you haven't said anything about. (spritesheet. py and spritesheet.json)

Deliciously nerdy! Tasty Py!

I have a question. I have like lots of different pictures or tiles that don't have names. What do I do here? in the json file, it doesn't specifically say any names about the tiles. It says something like this: { "columns":18, "image":"..\/..\/..\/..\/Library\/Mobile Documents\/com~apple~CloudDocs\/Pygame Project\/Grounds 1-100\/Block-Land-16x16\/World-Tiles.png", "imageheight":1392, "imagewidth":288, "margin":0, "name":"Mario Tileset", "spacing":0, "tilecount":1566, "tiledversion":"1.10.2", "tileheight":16, "tilewidth":16, "type":"tileset", "version":"1.10" } I just went to the tile set in the tile editor and exported the tile set as a json file. I don't know what to do here. Notice how each tile doesn't have a name. And even if I do have names, should I just cite like 200 of them all? for row in map: x = 0; for tile in row: if tile == '0': self.start_x, self.start_y = x * self.tile_size, y * self.tile_size; elif tile == '1': tiles.append(Tile('Map/World-Tiles.png', x * self.tile_size, y * self.tile_size, self.spritesheet)); elif tile == '2': tiles.append(Tile('Map/World_Tiles.png', x * self.tile_size, y * self.tile_size, self.spritesheet)); I'm confused.

man I have rewatched this video so many times this weekend, you made me change my whole code this video literally took me out of tutorial hell, 100% recommended I never understood inheritance and how to pass a whole game object into another engine object until now... you made me convert all of my noob code into very concise functions... this is one of the best tutorials and channels I've found so far about pygame, thanks! please keep the videos coming you're an amazing teacher!

First, I wanted to write code like this to calculate that stuff, but decided to search on youtube. Thanks, man., you did it for me.)

really helpful tutorial!

Hey friend, how do I create usable items, like potions, in PyGame?

I guess I'm a little late but this is still informative. Thank! Also, if you havn't used it, enumerate() makes those 'for' loops much prettier.

this json method feels very unnecessary, it's a good tutorial but for a poor implementation that requires a paid program to be efficient... 90% of spritesheets are consistent grids that shouldn't require a json like this

thank you for an amazing video. However im a little confused about line 19 in main file. How does that check if there is an X or O. The last part isnt even a dictionary. Id appreciate a response thanks :)

I am getting the error "pygame: font is not initialised" whenever I run the code, I have copied the tutorial code exactly and got the font required

Which application are you using??
