Hello,
Thereâs another way to look at teaching using Python and Pygame, which does away with the boilerplate code. The project is called Pygame Zero and is pretty cool. https://pygame-zero.readthedocs.org/en/latest/
From the site:
âPygame Zero is for creating games without boilerplate.â âIt is intended for use in education, so that teachers can teach basic programming without needing to explain the Pygame API or write an event loop." Very cool, actually, and may be just what you need.
