How to Make Objects Move in PyGame!

Making objects move is the essence of almost all fun games, and knowing how to do this in pygame is super easy and alot of fun!

In this video we cover how to move a player, how to move the world around a player, and how to animate a character!

This is actually sick! I have always found It quite hard to animate characters in pygame.This was super helpful for my games!

Your videos are great!! I love the content and have been following along with your tutorials to learn python.

Hey man. I am trying hard to make simple 2d balls collide and bounce off in a realistic way. I use a mask to get a pixel perfect collision detection, I calculate the collision angle and do some quite extended vector calculations to modify the velocity vectors of both balls to bounce them of. And most of the time my code works. But every now and then the balls just move through each other instead of bouncing off. And I can't find the origin of that "bug". Do you have any experience with physics based, realistic collisions in pygame?

Most solutions I found on the internet just use the mask to reverse the velocity vector once a collision is detected. That is effective and seems to work always. But it disregards correct bounce angles. And I really want to have them.
