Py for Today

Python is a vast language. This is not generally portrayed as such even in many coding communities, but none-the-less, this language is deep. Some consider it almost too "simple" to be of much use, but the more I dig the more I find.

In regards to this current project, a game using a GUI interface, the logic of the game itself is not of any concern yet, but the understanding and control of the visual representation of the game is a whole other story. It is challenging in a fun way, actually, and there is much to play with. "Much" being many modules from different sources that do similar and at times very different things in the handling of graphics to the screen. "What are you trying to do?" asks Python: view images, animation, file manipulation, enhancement... Python and its libraries will be able to do it for you. The key is taking the time to research and experiment with these modules in order to find exactly what you are seeking.

I have been trying alot of things today in Python (while I listen to hours of Iron Maiden) in order to get the system to respond to code, hence, rendering to the screen my visual image for this 2D game. I have had some very interesting results which excites me, but... I have not figured it out yet. I cannot wait to begin writing the logic code and working on the NPC A.I..
