I like the series it is very well put together. I'm learning a lot about programming and I'm not a programmer so that says a great deal about your teaching skills. So any way keep putting stuff out there because you are helping people like myself.

I'm going to be at a camp next week, so I'm going to fall behind 6 or so videos! :( I guess I have a marathon of catching up to look forward to when I get back! :D Great video, as always Cherno.

Try increasing the buffer strategy number in Game.render()
Normally it should be 3, but if it is flashing for you at 3, try changing to 5 and so on...
My one only flashes at 1

[Hadermite]

Lol I watched 30 episodes in one day...

Merry Christmas! It's five years later, but the same time. :-) It seems that this time of year makes us to become children again, make and play toys, etc :-)

Hemispheres have relatively complimentary temperatures throughout time.

g.setColor(Color.BLACK);
g.fillRect(0, 0, width * scale, 20);
g.setColor(Color.WHITE);
g.setFont(new Font("Verdana", 0, 12));
g.drawString("X: " + x + ", Y: " + y, 15, 15);

When you're a beginner at programming :P This is like the fourth language I'm learning and I don't need to learn the essentials every time.

[sysadmin-info]

g.drawString("X: " + x + ", Y:" + y, 200, 200); gives this error:
The type java.lang.CharSequence cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files
It's probably because of JRE 8 not 6. Have no idea how to solve it. Eventually use Eclipse Keppler. Right?

[AnAnxiousExtrovert]

I have about 36 videos to catch up on because of a vacation I took :O Wish me luck

[rakijah]

Lol, I started with this series yesterday and went through 1 - 39 in one go :P
