How to Create PARTICLE EFFECTS in Python - Pygame Tutorial

Did you know that creating particles are actually really easy? Let me show you how to do it the simplest and most effective way in Pygame using the built-in sprite module!

NOTE: I made a mistake as I used Particle instead of FloatingParticle at the end, although it works the same way as we made no modifications in the subclass. Find the fixed version on my GitHub :)

framerate independence is an important concept that I wouldn't mind seeing a more full tutorial on

7:52 u could use the build in collison check to see if a coordinate is colliding with the screen rect or not to remove the particle, or give a timer to self destroy after X time pass.

Anyway nice video. ;-)

Ive been meaning to figure this out. Thanks so much!

Have you messed around with Esper at all? It's an Entity Component System for python. I wonder if using it with a particle system could offer even further performance benefits? Regardless I'd love to learn more about it, because learning about ECS is something I've been struggling with.

If you were like me, using pygame to calculate delta time made the simulation extremely jittery and it would look extremely laggy. If found that using the time library works much better. If you take one time reading at the begging of the loop and one at the end, then subtract the two, it works much better.

I can't find where you are importing the constants SCREEN_WIDTH & SCREEN_HEIGHT anywhere. Please help :)

if you can look past my hypocricy; instead of making small projects which turn out sort of meh in the grand scheme of things, try to stick to Ork Slayer and it would eventually become remarkable

5:20 all of this for just this Bro you type almost 50 lines this thing is possible in just 20-30 lines using def and while and list
