Re: [Audyssey] Free Python Sample Games

2010-11-25 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Phil,

Well, at the moment PySonic is a no go. Apparently the latest Windows
build they have on the PySonic website is for Python 2.3 which is
ancient. I tried checking out the PySonic source and compiling it for
Python 2.7 and the latest FMOD SDK and it gave me a boat load of build
errors. So I don't know what is up with that. It looks like the source
maintainers for PySonic have abandoned the project as it isn't
actively being maintained as is PySFML, PyGame, and other Python game
APIs. too bad as it would have been easy to add into the project, but
looks like it needs an update to run with newer versions of Python and
FMOD.

Cheers!

Hi Thomas,
I do hope you add PySonic  to the Blackjack game.
You could add jus one example then we could add such things as a sound 
effect when dealing a card, and voices when you hit or stand.

Plus some congratulations sound and maybe a crowd cheering when you win.

I've downloaded the game and plan to play it soon.

Hi,

Yeah, and that would be a good combination. FMOD is a great API, and I
should probably add PySonic to a game like Blackjack just to give it a
little extra like the sound of shuffling cards and things like that.

Re: [Audyssey] Free Python Sample Games

2010-11-23 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi,

No. As I have said before these are, simple, text based games, written
for the purpose of getting new programmers into programming console
based games using standard input and output via print and raw_input.
Things like PyGame which is required for event driven input, sounds,
music, flashy graphics, is not for a beginning programmer. Mind you it
is not hard but it is a lot more involved and you can't learn to
program by trying to create Shades of Doom or Troopenum on your first
day of class. The purpose here is to start simply and work our way up
to the live action games with all the bells and wistles we want.

Smile.

Hi,

I haven't had a chance to upload the games yet. I'm looking at
uploading sometime this weekend after the holiday stuff settles down.
They'll be on my free games page.

As far as the Python interpreter goes you can download a copy for your
platform from
http://www.python.org
and the current stable release is Python 2.7. Although, I am still
using 2.6 do to the fact a number of Python modules such as PyGame
haven't been updated for 2.7 yet.


As far as accessibility goes it is a simple commandline program. If
your screen reader can handle the Windows command prompt then python
is accessible. Just run a command like
c:\python26\python blackjack.py
to run a game like Blackjack from raw source, or associate *.py files
with python.exe in Windows Explorer to run them by clicking on them.

Python programming for beginners with a bent towards game programming
in Python. Unfortunately, the documentation isn't ready, but I have
written a few sample games to go along with the book. Since Lisa asked
the question about programming games I was wondering how many others
share her interest in perhaps writing games in Python. If so I happen
to have a few very simple sample games  written in Python aimed at a
very beginner level. These definitely are not very complex affares.
Mostly they are simple text based games like Guess the Number, Paper
Scissors Rock, Blackjack, Number Stumper, and things like that.
Entertaining as a first project, but not much else. Any interest in
these sample games?

Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Free Python Sample Games

2010-11-23 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi,

Yes. All games come in source code format. In fact, none of them have
been compiled, because with Python programs you don't actually have to
compile them. You can just run them in the Python interpreter like
python blackjack.py
and run it from raw source. No compiling etc necessary.The advantage
of leaving them in source format like that rather than building an
executable using py2exe is that the same game can be run on Mac,
Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, Solaris, your Apple IPhone, etc as is. I'd
imagine the games might even run on the Braille Plus notetakers since
they have Python built into the notetaker.


Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Free Python Sample Games

2010-11-23 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Bryan,

Oh, the formatting isn't too bad once you get use to it. Yeah,you have
to remember to do it, but it is no worse than formatting code in any
other programming language. You can use tabs or you can use spaces to
align text. Personally, I go for spacing as it makes aligning things
easier to remember. For example, the body of a function would be
indented four spaces like this.

def hello_world():
print "Hello world!\n"
#End function

As you can see here the print statement is indented four spaces where
the function definition itself is not indented. This is actually
pretty par for any programming language, and I guess I have been
programming so long now indenting code by four spaces is, well, like
second nature to me. I'd imagine after you get use to it indenting
code will become that wway for you too.


Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] Free Python Sample Games

2010-11-23 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Milos,

Well, the book isn't ready yet, but some of the sample games are. For
example, some sample games I have completed is Guess the Number,
Blackjack, and Number Stumper. All very simple games from a
programming standpoint. In addition to that I have some games in the
works like Oregon Trail and Dungeon which I am porting from Apple
Basic to Python 2.6. Both are favorite text adventures from my
childhood.

So give me a couple of days to write the documentation for the games,
and I'll start uploading them to the website. It shouldn't take to
long to write up a readme file for each game. Although, with
Thanksgiving coming up I might not get to it until the weekend.

As for the Python docs I understand. While they are free and pretty in
depth the problem I found with them is the authors don't give
realistic examples. If someone wants to show off the Python random
class, for example, a simple Guess the Number game does more to show
off the use of the randrange() function than selecting from a list of
fruits as it gives the person something to actually play with that is
entertaining while teaching him/her valuable lessons in Python
programming.

Cheers!

  Hi Tom,
  I was thinking of starting it. I don't have much time, so that's mainly 
why I haven't still succeeded in something like that. I started with 
interactive fiction, I learned the Inform 7 and then tried the Python. The 
documentation confused me, then I started learning the BGT but that also 
didn't go, this time because of the little time I had. Then I tried with 
Visual Studio 2008 but couldn't find the apropriate documentation. With this

I am interested in black jack please Thomas, that would be cool if we 
could have a football and baseball game programmed with python.

Hi all,

Over the passed few months I have been working on a free book on
Python programming for beginners with a bent towards game programming
in Python. Unfortunately, the documentation isn't ready, but I have
written a few sample games to go along with the book. Since Lisa asked
the question about programming games I was wondering how many others
share her interest in perhaps writing games in Python. If so I happen
to have a few very simple sample games  written in Python aimed at a
very beginner level. These definitely are not very complex affares.
Mostly they are simple text based games like Guess the Number, Paper
Scissors Rock, Blackjack, Number Stumper, and things like that.
Entertaining as a first project, but not much else. Any interest in
these sample games?

Cheers!

Definitely.

I would also like to test/try them out on my phones, with their python 
support installed.


Stay well
