Game Programming with Python and PyGame, by Mr Valdez - Part 2
summary
A working PyGame demo creates a 640x480 window and runs a classic game loop that polls events updates objects and draws each frame, representing characters as sprites as rects and using axis-aligned rectangle math for collision detection. The code limits speed with a 60 FPS cap, spawns multiple enemies with random positions, fires bullets, and removes enemies on hit; some rough edges remain (initial bullet hide by setting x to -1000, occasional event-handling glitches).
