Learn to code through game development with PursuedPyBear - Piper Thunstrom
The first game I remember coding, or at least copying from a magazine, was in Basic. It was Lunar Lander.
Learning to code a game is a way that a lot of people get started and excited about programming.
Of course, I don't recommend Basic. Now we've got Python. And one of the game engines available for Python is PursuedPyBear, a project started by Piper Thunstrom.
Piper joins us this episode and we talk about PursuedPyBear, learning to code, and learning CS concepts with game development.
PursuedPyBear, ppb, is a game framework great for learning with, with goals of being fun, education friendly, an example of idiomatic Python, hardware library agnostic, and built on event driven and object oriented concepts.
