The scripting language Python is easy to use, and thus very convenient to program simple games. And to make it even simpler, there one Python module which is dedicated to games creation: pygame. It makes you life much easier when programming a game as it takes care of the user input, the graphics and the sound effects.
To install it, if you are using Ubuntu as I did for this tutorial, you can simply install it by typing this command in a terminal:
sudo apt-get install
pygame
If you are using another
operating system, please refer to the
downloads page of the pygame website.
