Eine kleine Einführung in Python und eine tolle Einführung in Pygame!
Mir gefallen besonders der Stil in dem dieses Buch geschrieben ist und die Erklärungen der "Stolpersteine". Weiters finde ich gut, dass es nicht nur eine Auflistung/Einführung der Befehle ist (da könnte man ja auch die offizielle Dokumentation lesen), sondern ein komplettes Spiel von vorne bis hinten durchentwickelt wird. Gerade das, so finde ich, ist für Hobbyprogrammierer mitunter am Wichtigsten.
Denn einzelen Befehle kann man nachlesen und lernen, aber ganz selten wird gezeigt, wie man Schritt für Schritt vorgeht um ein ganzes Projekt zu verwirklichen. Gerade das sehe ich als großes Manko bei vielen Büchern!
Darum: ein tolles Buch, das ich gerne weiterempfehle!

Don't judge this book by it's cover!
3. November 2007
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
Don't judge this book by it's cover! For some reason,
this book is part of a series of Wiley books, and they
all have the same cover.
This is a book about learning how to program computer
games using the Python programming language and the
PyGame package. PyGame is a Python wrapper around the
SDL library. This book offers step-by-step tutorials
that introduce game programming with complete Python
programs. All the programs work on several platforms:
MS-Windows, Mac, and GNU/Linux. Chapters 1-3 introduce
the Python programming language. Starting with Chapter
4, you begin to learn about graphics programming. In
Chapter 6 the programs begin to use OOP/classes. Then,
in Chapter 7, you begin to learn how to make 2D games
with sprites, sound FX, and keyboard and mouse control.
Game programming is a fun way to learn how to program
a computer, and Python with PyGame makes it relatively
easy as well.
This book has detailed information on creating graphics
and sounds for your games, using free, open source
third-party tools that are available on all platforms.
The GIMP is used for graphics, and Audacirty is used
for sounds. So unlike many other game programming books
which require expensive third-party programs in order
to make games, ALL the programs in this book are free.
The book has an easy-going, conversational style of writing
that makes it seem that the author is looking over your
shoulder, helping you to learn game programming. I'm really
glad I bought this book. It is worth many times its cover
price considering the amount of information it contains.
Things I like about this book:
1. Easy to read and understand with step-by-step tutorials.
2. Helpful reference tables throughout the book.
3. Complete example game programs.
4. All the third-party programs required are free and open.
5. Source code and extra appendices available for download.
Happy Programming!

Great book - review by experienced programmer
23. April 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
This is a great book which didn't get the attention it deserved. It was always a bargain for the 550+ pages of well written text, and it is now priced down. I am a quite experienced python programmer, new to game design, and found the book insightful and easy to read.
Major advantages:
- does not depend on any library other than pygame (obviously)
- well written, clear examples, well structured: it was easy for me to jump to the bits that were of interest to me
- good examples, all of them small enough to be understandable yet showing many aspects of 2D platform type games.
- full source for download
Drawbacks:
- The first chapter tries to introduce you to python, one of my colleagues actually learned python from this but why not refer to many resources available?
- ugly cover, doesn't even mention the author's name , nor does it mention Python!
- the introduction has some convincing arguments why aspiring game programmers should not start out with C/C++ but start with a high level language like Python instead. This should have been repeated on the back cover.
Worth every penny I paid for it!

Fantastic Book
9. Oktober 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
This book was a great read. The author simplified the subjects and provided standard ways for doing what at first might seem complicated (like sprite animation). While this by no means is a complete guide to game programming, it does a very fine job of getting someone started making large, if somewhat simplistic, 2D games. It doesn't throw in complicated subjects like AI and 3D (which deserve their own books), and if you're brand new to Python it has a respectable introduction in the beginning. I suspect this would also be a great book for a high school class. It's a shame that it's not immediately obvious from the title that it uses Python and PyGame, as this really is the best book using those tools for getting into game programming.
