Beginner wants to learn Python to make simple games – where to start?

Hello everyone,

I am a 14-year-old student and just started learning Python. I have a dream of working at NASA, so I want to learn programming soon. Currently, I want to make a simple game in Python, for example a meteor shooting game or a gravity simulation between planets.

I don’t know which library I should start learning from (pygame, turtle or tkinter?) and do I need to learn anything else first.

I hope everyone can help me with a roadmap or easy-to-understand documents for beginners like me. Thank you very much!

Hey Vòng,

The raspberrypi organisation has an introduction to Python, it sets out a roadmap and you start building simple games.

Once you’ve done that, Pygame’s tutorial can be a good next step: Python PyGame Tutorial - The Complete Guide - CodersLegacy
