Gaming In Python
I really loved that creating games in Python is made easier to learn and do with the resources that are available. I collected APIs and watched many tutorials to come up with a personalized version of a running game
Problems I ran Into
Using inspiration and code from others was difficult and I ran into a lot of errors. I really had to teach myself how the API worked and in what way could I manipulate it to run how I imagined it to.
I also initially wanted to put my game into a website but I had difficulty connecting the two. I tried turning my py file into an exe. one but unfortunately that also didn't seem to work. That is an obstacle that I will continue to try to overcome to improve my projects.
What I accomplished
Despite my challenges, I was able to create my first pygame with Python in VSCode.
What's next for JumpBob
In the future, I would love to expand the features of the game. Adding a menu where the user can select from multiple different characters or settings. I also plan on improving the style and the design of the game as well and incorporating more actions for the user to use. For now, players can only run and jump and JumpBob, but adding a duck feature, coin collection, and harder obstacles would really complete the game.
