In this chapter, we will continue to tidy up the game interface of our latest pygame project by creating a pause mechanism to pause the game when the user presses on the p key on the keyboard. In order to pause the game, we need to edit three files.

The first one is the main file where the program will detect the key up event of the p key whenever the user has pressed the p key on the computer keyboard. The program will then ask the game manager to set the pause flag to true.

import pygame
from pygame.locals import *
from GameManager import GameManager

pygame.init()

size = width, height = 640, 640
pygame.display.set_caption("Amaze Boy")  # set the title of the window
screen = pygame.display.set_mode(size)
game_manager = GameManager(screen)
rect_exit = Rect(229, 456, 200, 53)  # the position of the exit button on the home scene
running = True
pygame.key.set_repeat(100, 40)

while running:

    for event in pygame.event.get():
        # when the user clicks on the 'x'
        if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
            game_manager.save_level()
            running = False

        # detect key press event
        if event.type == KEYDOWN:

            if (game_manager.state == 1):

                if event.key == K_LEFT:
                    game_manager.set_player_x(-2)
                elif event.key == K_RIGHT:
                    game_manager.set_player_x(2)
                elif event.key == K_UP:
                    game_manager.set_player_y(-2)
                elif event.key == K_DOWN:
                    game_manager.set_player_y(2)

        elif event.type == KEYUP:

            if (game_manager.state == 1):

                if event.key == K_LEFT:
                    game_manager.set_player_x(0)
                elif event.key == K_RIGHT:
                    game_manager.set_player_x(0)
                elif event.key == K_UP:
                    game_manager.set_player_y(0)
                elif event.key == K_DOWN:
                    game_manager.set_player_y(0)
                elif event.key == K_p:
                    game_manager.set_pause(True)  # set the pause state to true

        elif event.type == pygame.MOUSEBUTTONDOWN:
            x, y = event.pos
            if (rect_exit.collidepoint(x, y) and game_manager.state == game_manager.LOAD):
                game_manager.save_level()
                running = False
            # 1 is the left mouse button
            elif event.button == 1:
                game_manager.isAreaClick(x, y)

    game_manager.loop()

Next is to set the game state to pause under the set pause method of the game manager class. If the game state is set to pause then the start scene class will show the pause scene with two buttons, the home button will bring the player to the menu page and the play button will resume the game.

Finally we need to edit the start scene class accordingly. The pause state is number 7.

Today I have created the pause scene for the @pygame_org project 🙂 pic.twitter.com/4XVwvkbiH5

Like, share or follow me on Twitter. We will look at another game scene in the next chapter.

Hello, welcome back, due to busy managing the offline business as well as writing article for another website, therefore, no post had been created in the past few days. Today we will finally begin the first chapter of our new pygame project which will go on for a while so do visit this site once in a while for more articles.

After we have created the first pygame project we already have the full python’s game framework which we can use to create the second game. All I am doing now is to reuse most of the classes that I have created in the previous project and will only do the necessary modification on those classes when we need to. What our game plan for this game is to start from the menu page and then slowly moving down to the game manager class and so on. The thing we need to do in this article is to modify the main menu page of the previous game. Before we do anything we will change the name of the main file from hello.py to main.py plus change the title of the game, we will also change the name of the color manager class to something meaningful and change the default color which that color class will receive.

pygame.init()

size = width, height = 660, 660
pygame.display.set_caption("Amaze Boy")  # set the title of the window

game_manager = GameManager(screen)
rect_exit = Rect(229, 456, 200, 53)  # the position of the exit button on the home scene
running = True

while running:

    for event in pygame.event.get():
        # when the user clicks on the 'x'
        if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
            game_manager.save_level()
            running = False
        # detect key press event
        if event.type == KEYDOWN:

            if (game_manager.state == 1):
                if event.key == K_LEFT:
                    game_manager.set_player_x(-0.1)
                elif event.key == K_RIGHT:

                if event.key == K_s:
                    game_manager.save_scene()

        elif event.type == KEYUP:

            if (game_manager.state == 1):
                if event.key == K_LEFT:
                    game_manager.set_player_x(0)
                elif event.key == K_RIGHT:
                    game_manager.set_player_x(0)

                if event.key == K_UP:

            if (rect_exit.collidepoint(x, y) and game_manager.state == game_manager.LOAD):
                game_manager.save_level()
                running = False
            # 1 is the left mouse button
            elif event.button == 1:

    def __init__(self, r=255, g= 250, b= 205, a=255):
        Color.__init__(self, r,g,b,a)

Finally, we will replace the previous graphic on the main menu page with the new one as well as changing the background color. All the other features remain unchanged.

With those small changes we have finished the main page setup, it seems like there is nothing much to change on those other pages so in the next article we will start to modify those game object classes.

At the moment I am using the below soundtrack for this new game, but I will come out with totally new music. If you are also a music lover then do follow me on SoundCloud so we can listen to each other music together!

Still around, ok here is another announcement which I want to make. I will change the game plan a little, the original plan of creating five games with pygame will now reduce to only three games, I will create another 2 games with other python gaming framework which will definitely help me as well as you to get used to other python gaming framework instead of just pygame. The new game which will be developed with another framework will start together with this latest pygame project so do subscribe to this website immediately through the red bell button on this page if you are really serious about learning python as well as creating your own game with python.

Hello, it has been a day since the last post, I am busy preparing the next pygame project which will appear on this website soon so do stay tuned. While we are getting ready for our next game project in a few days time why don’t we look at what are those changes that we have made on the previous pygame project in this article? While preparing the second released for the previous pygame project I have made another update on the game scene by including the level text on top of the game scene. The new game scene will look like this, the score text on the left and the level text on the center.

In order to include the level text, we have made the changes on both the game manager class as well as the score class.

The second version of this game is actually ready, I am playing it now to make sure there is no bug in this game before uploading the game. If you have not yet downloaded the first version of the game you can do so through below link.

In the last chapter we have created a pause scene as well as created a play button which will resume the game after a user has pressed on it and in this chapter we will continue to modify the pause scene by adding in one more button which will return the player to the main page if that player has pressed on it. First we will need to modify the start scene class by adding an extra button into it.

            self.score_manager.draw()
            pygame.display.flip()

With that set we are ready to move on and in the next chapter we will save the current game level to a local txt file whenever the user has left the game!

In this article we are going to create a game over scene for the pygame project, we will use back the start scene class which we have created previously to render our game over scene by slightly modify it for the multi-scenes uses. Here is the modify version of the start scene class, as you can see we have passed in a state variable to the start scene class’s draw method which will be used to determine which scene to be rendered on the screen.

from BgSprite import BgSprite
from GameSprite import GameSprite
from pygame.locals import *
from pygame import math as mt
import pygame

class StartScene(object):

    def __init__(self, scene):
        self.scene = scene
        self.button_image = 'Asset/button_play.png'
        self.bg_image = 'Asset/start.png'
        self.over_image = 'Asset/ove.png'
        self.bg_rect = Rect(0, 0, 660, 660)
        self.button_rect = Rect(0, 0,  306, 112)
        self.sprite = BgSprite(self.bg_image, self.bg_rect)
        self.sprite_over = BgSprite(self.over_image, self.bg_rect)
        self.sprite_button = GameSprite(self.button_image, self.button_rect)
        self.over_surface = self.sprite_over.getImage()  # get the game over sprite surface
        self.surface = self.sprite.getImage()  # get the start scene sprite surface
        self.button_surface = self.sprite_button.getImage() # get the button sprite surface
        self.draw_pos = mt.Vector2(0, 0)
        self.draw_button_pos = mt.Vector2(177, 274)

    def draw(self, state):
        
        if(state == 0):
            self.scene.blit(self.surface, self.draw_pos) # draw a start scene sprite
        else:
            self.scene.blit(self.over_surface, self.draw_pos)  # draw a game over sprite
        self.scene.blit(self.button_surface, self.draw_button_pos)  # draw a button sprite
        pygame.display.flip()

Next we will need to modify the Game Manager class again by including an extra game over state variable and a new setup method into it.

from Player import Player
from Background import Background
from EnemyManager import EnemyManager
from Overlap import Overlap
from ExplosionManager import ExplosionManager
from Score import Score
from StartScene import StartScene
from pygame.locals import *
import pygame

class GameManager(object):

    def __init__(self, scene):

        self.scene = scene
        self.start_scene = StartScene(scene)
        self.load_music()
        self.play_music()
        self.overlap_manager = Overlap()

        self.setup()

        #game state
        self.LOAD = 0
        self.GAME = 1
        self.OVER = 2

        self.state = self.LOAD

    def setup(self):

        self.player = Player(self.scene)
        self.background = Background(self.scene)
        self.enemy_manager = EnemyManager(self.scene, self.player)
        self.explosion_manager = ExplosionManager(self.scene)
        self.score_manager = Score(self.scene)

    def loop(self):

        if(self.state == self.LOAD or self.state == self.OVER):

            self.start_scene.draw(self.state)

        elif(self.state == self.GAME):

            self.update()
            self.draw()

    def isAreaClick(self, pos):
        if (self.state == self.LOAD or self.state == self.OVER):
            self.rect = Rect(177, 274, 306, 112) # the position of the play button on the scene
            x, y = pos
            if(self.rect.collidepoint(x, y)):
                self.state = self.GAME


    def load_music(self):
        pygame.mixer_music.load('Music/winternight.ogg')

    def play_music(self):
        pygame.mixer_music.play(-1) #play the music infinite time

    def set_player_x(self, _x):
        if (self.state == self.GAME):
            self.player.setX(_x)

    def set_player_y(self, _y):
        if (self.state == self.GAME):
            self.player.setY(_y)

    def set_missile_strike(self, strike):
        if (self.state == self.GAME):
            self.player.setStrike(strike)

    def update(self):
        self.player.update()
        self.enemy_manager.update()
        self.isOverlap()
        self.explosion_manager.explosion_update()

    # check for player, enemy, missiles overlap
    def isOverlap(self):
        self.overlap_manager.isOverlap(self.player, self.enemy_manager, self.explosion_manager, self.score_manager, self)

    def draw(self):
        self.background.draw()
        self.player.draw()
        self.enemy_manager.draw()
        self.explosion_manager.draw()
        self.score_manager.draw()
        pygame.display.flip()

We will pass in this class as the reference into the isOverlap method of the overlap manager which then will be used to access the state variable as well as reset the game objects to their original state by calling the newly created setup method of this class.

The last thing we need to do is to modify the overlap class.

from pygame.locals import *

class Overlap(object):

    def __init__(self):
        pass # nothing here

    # is player and enemy, player missile, enemy missile overlap
    def isOverlap(self, player, em, ex, score, gm):

        self.player_rect = Rect(player.pos.x, player.pos.y, player.width, player.height)

        for i in range(len(em.enemy_list)): # is player collides with enemy

            self.em_rect = Rect(em.enemy_list[i].x, em.enemy_list[i].y, em.width, em.height)
            if (self.player_rect.colliderect(self.em_rect)):
                em.enemy_list[i].on = False
                if(em.enemy_list[i].hit == False):
                    ex.create_explosion(player.pos.x + 2, player.pos.y + 2)
                    em.enemy_list[i].hit = True
                    gm.state = gm.OVER
                    gm.setup()

        for i in range(len(em.enemy_missile_manager.missile_list)): # is enemy missile hits player

            self.em_rect = Rect(em.enemy_missile_manager.missile_list[i].x, em.enemy_missile_manager.missile_list[i].y, em.enemy_missile_manager.width, em.enemy_missile_manager.height)
            if (self.player_rect.colliderect(self.em_rect)):
                em.enemy_missile_manager.missile_list[i].on = False
                ex.create_explosion(player.pos.x + 2, player.pos.y + 2)
                score.set_score(-1)
                if(score.score < 0):
                    gm.state = gm.OVER
                    gm.setup()

        for i in range(len(em.enemy_list)): # is player missile hits enemy

            self.em_rect = Rect(em.enemy_list[i].x, em.enemy_list[i].y, em.width, em.height)

            for j in range(len(player.getMissileManager().missile_list)):

                self.mm_rect = Rect(player.getMissileManager().missile_list[j].x, player.getMissileManager().missile_list[j].y, player.getMissileManager().width, player.getMissileManager().height)

                if (self.em_rect.colliderect(self.mm_rect)):
                    em.enemy_list[i].on = False
                    player.getMissileManager().missile_list[j].on = False
                    if (em.enemy_list[i].hit == False):
                        ex.create_explosion(em.enemy_list[i].x, em.enemy_list[i].y + 2)
                        em.enemy_list[i].hit = True
                        score.set_score(1)

The game over scene will be loaded and the game objects will be recreated whenever the player collides with the enemy ship or the player strength falls below zero.

With that done we are now ready to move on to the next stage of the project, which is to create a level manager class to manage all the game levels in this game.
