PyWeek - Team Terrible - feedback

the shortest game ever... :)
no sounds nor music

Ok it works. Reminds me game I played 20 years ago on chineese 1000in1 brick game device.

Seems like a good idea that could be made into a fun game with more challenges and a difficulty curve.

It starts.

Lol. In a league with the most minimalist game styles ever. For some reason it made me laugh, and that is worth a fun point. I think part of what tickled me was the subliminal win-lose flashed at the end. Perhaps we were not supposed to find out. Well, you guys clearly did not take yourselves too seriously, which I find charming.

Very small game, and first Pyweek: you finished the project, thumbs up. You may get some hard feedback, but don't take it personally. It takes guts to come out and put your thing down. I want to encourage you to learn and do more, and come back again please. And absolutely keep your sense of humor. :)

Some things to look into:
1. A proper game loop that keeps time. A fixed time step, not variable, is important.
2. Instead of keys-pressed, keep track of KEYDOWN and KEYUP events, as well as other presses. You can "memo-ize" them, and then you can give better keyboard and mouse control to the player.
3. Use of timers, either pygame's or make your own. They are not hard. They will change your programming habits for the better. With timers you can delay that end-game text so we can read it.
4. An asynchronous game loop, which simply means it spins forever until a condition exits. Within the loop you can change things out in all sorts of ways. If you master this it will open great doors of opportunity for you.

Thanks for making this game and reading my feedback. Kudos. :)

Congrats for making a game! We all need to start somewhere :)

It's a pretty straight forward game, but definitely good work in that (a) it's complete, (b) it works without bugs and (c) it has minimal dependancies, which is always good :). It's a good platform that you could continue to build on.

For a week long project, this is a bit sparse. But at least it did work.

you did a thing! I lost, I won, I laughed I cried. I hope you had fun :D

Simple but good execution!

Keep it up and you'll be pros in no time

This is pretty nice for your guy's first coding competition. Good job!
For the actually game however, it was crashing before I got to the end.
The furthest I went was the 3rd level.

Well, it's a complete game!
