🐍 Free Live Python Workshop:
Build an Arcade-Style Video Game (Aug 6)
Build Something Real with Python
Join Our Free Live Coding Workshop
Do you like playing video games? How about writing one while you learn Python fundamentals?
Join us for a free, beginner-friendly Python workshop where you’ll build a working program for a target-hitting game. Can you find the right trajectory to hit the target on the other side?
What You’ll Create:
A Python program that:
- Creates a cannon that shoots cannon balls
- Places a target on the opposite side of the screen
- Allows you to move the cannon to the desired position
- Shoots the cannon ball, which follows a trajectory
You’ll Learn By Doing:
- Creating and manipulating Python objects
- Defining functions to reuse code
- Importing Python modules (hello, random and turtle!)
- Making decisions with if statements
- Using variables to keep track of changing values
- Working with simple graphics
- Handling common errors gracefully
Perfect For You If:
- You’re new to Python or programming
- You learn best by building practical projects
- You want to code along with an instructor in real-time
- You prefer hands-on learning over passive watching
