Quoting: Quote from HamishSo basically after the first week they give you enough fundamentals that you could make a linear text based choose your own adventure game.

Which is around where I was at with QBasic a decade ago. Still, lets get a handle on the simple stuff first.

This is probably already too basic for you, but for anyone else wanting to dip their toes in Python and gaming I would recommend checking out Invent Your Own Computer Games with Python: http://inventwithpython.com/

It's aimed at novice/inexperienced programmers though.

So for the third Problem Set they got us to make Hangman. Got it finished in a day. ^_^

Got the final Problem Set done today, and I am already well past the course mark I needed to get the course certificate. Will be completing the final this upcoming Saturday.

Ah, good 'ol python! :D The first language I learned, and man did I miss it when I took a course on C++ in community college! I need to brush up on it, I've been much more content playing with pixels rather than code as of late.
