    Probably the best PyGame creator I have come across!
    I would love to hear more of your ideas on object-oriented design (maybe SOLID principles, design patterns etc.) while developing games or GUIs. There isn't much good content on object-oriented design in Python (or PyGame).
    Maybe some multiplayer implementations over network using sockets would be awesome as well!

      Personally, I feel that creating classes and objects for game entities is relatively easier but creating classes for providing functionalities like settings, stats, menu etc. is trickier

    Instead of saving the old rect of the ball and the player, you can look at the ball direction. So, instead of looking if the ball in the previous frame was on the left or on the right you can see the direction x or y and deduce where it was. I think it's easier this way.

      just using direction you can still have tunneling problem, he explains that in the collisions tutorial video

    My only problem with this (and most of the other Breakout clone tutorials) is that it is deterministic. That is, the "angle of incidence (always) equals the angle of reflection". In this case the first and second ball cannot possibly be bounced by the paddle as the angles involved are larger then the possible paddle movement. Also, there is no way to vary the bounce. It is what it is and paddle movement during contact does not effect it.
    Other then that... Gotta love this guys teaching methods. Better then most of the rest. Still... Take PirateMaker for instance. It should have been constructed as a state machine because there are too many bugs in switching states between Editor and Game. Also his 'Delta Time' design needs more thorough. Not in design (very good) but in explanation. You need to spend some time explaining where you are going before you go there. Both theory and execution. I'd love to chat with Christian to get his take on how he designs his games.
    OTOH, I've not created any CZcams tutorials so my 'bitching' should be takes with a grain of salt. That said... I've done a LOT of tutorials for various audience levels over my 35 years and have, I hope, learned a thing or two about effective explanation/presentation.
    This, apparently is a young mans game and I am no longer young. 🙂 Sigh.

    A really good tutorial for learning how to program in Python. I used this tutorial to learn the syntax and the use of different libraries.
    Question: I'm NOT sure why this happens with my set-up. The way I handled this exercise I typed the code as a guide while listening, I came across a problem in several of the steps and I was able to figure out to work around. As an example, in the determining the aspect ratio for the background (create_bg) function, I got and exception of a float not allowed in a tuple therefore not allowing the code to execute. It was NOT until I cast the 'scaled_width' & 'scaled_height' to an 'int' was I able to compile the code. This was also true in the 'get_surf' function, the images width & height had to cast to an int until it executed.
    Does anyone know why in the tuitorial it allows a tuple to accept a float and in mine it does NOT?
    See my example code
    Sample 1
    def create_bg(self):
    bg_original = pygame.image.load('../graphics/other/bg.png').convert()
    scale_factor = WINDOW_HEIGHT / bg_original.get_height()
    scaled_width = int(bg_original.get_width() * scale_factor)
    scaled_height = int(bg_original.get_height() * scale_factor)
    ...........
    Sample 2
    # top side
    def get_surf(self, block_type, size):
    ..........
    top_width = int(size[0] - (sides['topleft'].get_width() + sides['topright'].get_width()))
    scaled_top_surf = pygame.transform.scale(sides['top'], (top_width, sides['top'].get_height()))
    image.blit(scaled_top_surf, (sides['topleft'].get_width(),0))
    ..........

    1. Okay, but why you need time.time() if you already have self.clock = pygame.time.Clock()?
    To set it as dt is as easy as: dt = self.clock.tick (variable in miliseconds). And you could add this to settings...
    2. By the way, pygame.display.update() is updating whole surface like display.flip() if you don't specify object that you want to update on the surface.
    3. You could've make one set of blolcks graphics in grayscale, and then assign colors needed wia health from COLOR_LEGEND, by multiplying or adding color values by blit() metod with alpha values somwhere near 33%.
    4. You could use a spritesheet for little preformance boost by cutting draw calls and serach calls to one each.
    (will add more, after going through your video. But for now... Keep it up man!)

    • @carlfranz6805

      time.time() is, in general, somewhat more precise then pygame,time.Clock(). That said, I really have no idea whether the difference is significant. I'd start with which is more efficient and work from there. Good luck. Let us know what you find out.
      I ran a thousand of each sometime back and found no significant difference. Both were around 0.036 (on a Raspberry Pi 3 overclocked to 1800mhz) in both average and mean. Sorry, I just don't remember statistical variance or standard deviation in either case.
      I apologise most profusely but I just didn't care enough to delve any deeper as I was working on a slightly different issue at the time.
