Learn how to build your own games using Python, the UK’s number one coding language for kids. From creative quizzes to perplexing puzzles, Computer Coding Python Games for Kids walks you through coding your own computer games step by step, whether you’re a seasoned programmer or a complete beginner hoping to pick up Python – and you’ll find it fun to read and easy to follow throughout. Each chapter shows how to construct a complete, working game in simple numbered steps, using freely available resources such as Pygame, Pygame Zero, and a downloadable pack of images and sounds to add animations, music, scrolling backgrounds, scenery, and other professional touches. Once a game is built, find out how to adapt it into your own personalised version, complete with secret hacks and cheat codes. Along the way, you’ll master the key concepts every programmer needs – not just in Python, but across all programming languages – discovering what bugs, loops, flags, strings, and turtles actually are, learning how to plan and design the ultimate game, and then testing and debugging it until it’s perfect. Before you know it, you’ll be a genuine coding genius.
