Thank you Mr.Russ for your passionate effort.
I'm a South Korean and used to be a teacher of English.
Due to your devotion I am very happy to study game code though old (born in 1953)

I've never seen a tutorial that's fun and educational at the same time. this guy is a legend. keep it up!

I can't believe im done with part 8
honestly, its been amazing completing this tutorial.
Even when I am tired from work I still want to keep staying up to keep watching lol

[otavio_rodrigues]

this tutorial series only gets better. amazing work, Russ. I watched your "Ultimate pygame intro" at clear code a couple of months ago and it taught me a lot, and for sure helped me to understand these tutorials very easily. huge fan of your work!

Clever workouround for enemy's vision and ai in general, this is great material, thanks a lot you're awesome Russ

[ericzhang]

you deserve plenty more attention, these tutorials have inspired me to create my own games and still do after a year watching you, very easily to follow along and learn all the logic behind the game

Great stuff again! I just did a small tweak to make it so you don't "pick up" the Health box when the player is at full HP. :-)

Love this playlist! Watching you has helped me alot... However two things I have no figured out yet is :
1) How to limit the ai from "seeing the player through a block"
2) how to keep the ai from walking off the end of a platform.

Man per usual great stuff I am now pausing and writing code and testing my way and I am not far off of the way you are doing it I always revert to your way just so I am following along :)
10 thumbs up my friend

Great tutorial, I recently discovered your channel because I procrastinated for a school project, and for what I had in mind I used a few aspects from the platformer game and was able to do quite well. So I hereby thank you.

Another thing is that, pygame is really well done. For example the draw "functions" etc. are super simple and I think your tutorials make pygame simple and intuitive. (Sorry if this comment isn't that well written I'm short on time atm :P)

Congratulations. Your tutorials are perfect.

[akshatnayak]

Thank you for the work u r doing Russ!

[jesterc.]

I cant believe that you just gave me the ability to create Metal Slug.

[proyectsjr]

Thank you very much friend, the tutorial has been very helpful to me. Keep up the good work.

I can build Many Projects by help of your Project, your project is very Intuitive. thanks for great content.

[johnstarfire]

great. I like the vision solution. you can use elif too...

[rhxie]

I finish this part, finding that enemy's bullet can kill another enemy. Fun:D

[LoganadoLakings]

There is a problem in mine. Whenever i enter the enemies vision, they always die and never shoot. I tried making sure that every line was correct but the error kept happening. Is there a way to fix this?
