Invent Your Own Computer Games with Python teaches you how to program in the Python language. Each chapter gives you the complete source code for a new game, and then teaches the programming concepts from the examples. Games include Guess the Number, Hangman, Tic Tac Toe, and Reversi. This book also has an introduction to making games with 2D graphics using the Pygame framework.
Programming isn't hard. But it is hard to find learning materials that teach you to do interesting things with programming. Other computer books go over many topics most newbie coders don't need. This book will teach you how to program your own computer games. You'll learn a useful skill and have fun games to show for it!
