# Pygame examples

A repository for short pygame drafts, examples, tutorials and more!

Currently, this repository contains a draft lighting system, a particle system, a networked game, a hexogonal tile system, a cloth simulation and other cool pygame examples.

## Getting started

To get a copy of this repository, simply open up git bash in an empty folder and use the command:

    $ git clone https://github.com/rbaltrusch/pygame_examples

Dependencies can be installed using the requirements.txt as below:

```

pip install -r requirements.txt

```

To run some of the examples, navigate to the respective folder in the code folder, then run main.py.

## Contents

This repository contains the following small pygame examples:

- [Particle system](code/particle_system): contains a simple, but effective, particle system implementation.

- [Evolution simulation](code/evolution_simulation): contains a simple simulation of evolving animals hunting for food.

- [Cloth simulation](code/cloth_simulation): contains a cloth simulation with custom physics.

- [Conway's game of life](code/conway_sim): contains a simulation of Conway's game of life.

- [Game console](code/game_console): contains a minimal implementation of an in-game console.

- [Animation testing tool](code/animator): can be used to test out animations. Contains a fully featured in-game console with a decoupled and flexible design.

- [Networked game](code/networked_game): contains a minimal implementation of a networked game, featuring one external server and two separate clients, communicating with each other through the server.

- [Dynamic lighting](code/simple_lighting): contains a small draft implementation for dynamic in-game lighting.

- [Hexagonal grid](code/hexagonal_tiles): contains an implementation of a hexagonal grid, including collision handling.

- [Tidy event queue](code/tidy_event_queue): contains an exercise in decoupling complex pygame event handling constructs into separate parts.

- [Async events](code/async_events): contains an example implementation for an asynchronous event handler (useful for writing linear-looking code for events with execution spread out over multiple game cycles).

- [Squish and stretch](code/squish_and_stretch): contains an example implementation of squishing and stretching an image.

- [Timed events](code/timed_events): contains an implementation of callbacks executed after a specified delay. Not pygame-specific.

- [Random starry sky](code/random_screen_animation): generates a random starry sky.
