Part 2. Playing with Python

Minecraft, Pac-Man, and Super Mario Brothers are great games, and they were all created by programmers like you. You’ll have to gain more skills to make games like those, but you can create some basic games pretty quickly. All these games have the game player interact with the computer. The computer is programmed with logic: instructions that control how the game reacts to the player’s choices. The game is constantly responding to input from the user, whether it is a button press or a key press.

Games are a good way to learn programming because they combine creativity, fun, and logical thinking into one project. Games are also interactive, requiring the user to make choices and the computer to respond to those choices. The goal is to make the game entertaining, so you’ll use your creativity and imagination to add magic to your games. You decide how you want to program your game and how it responds!
