My personal project website
Python was my first "real" programming language, some
Scratch aside. I first started with watching some youtube
tutorials, as you just do. I installed a python IDE I
really can recommend, for starters as much as for pros.
PyCharm is a really useful IDE specialised just for
Python and therefore not as confusing as other multi-
lingual IDEs in my opinion. The team of JetBrains, the
creators of PyCharm, have some other solutions as well,
which are worth checking out. PyCharm installed I immidietly
started the first project a had in mind. And until today
I don't really know if it was a good decision or not. Either
way I programmed my first "ConsoleBasedGame" (this really
was the WIP-title) later called ConsoleQuest. I had
the idea in my head of a textadventure divided into
totally different chapters with differend game mechanics.
Of course it turned out way harder than I thought and
looking back it really wasn't my best idea to start with
such a complex project at the first place. But hey, I kept
going and I think I collected some helpful experiences
along the way. Failiures included.
So, after to much talking I will finally show you my
project. Try it out, here it is:
Just as I did with Python I started
C (and later C++) with youtube tutorials. I didn't really
create a bigger project in C, so we'll skip my tutorial
scripts and start right into C++. After some c++ tutorials
as well, I wanted to programm my first game with graphics
and found a NSFW totorial on this topic. I must confess, in
the beginning I just typed after the tutorial guy and didn't
really understand what I was doing, so when I tried to add
some functions on my one, nothing worked. So I took a break
and after I programmed a C# project in one of my work
experences I found myself able to fix the bugs I produced
and continue my game. It's a space-shooter just as astroids
and also heavily inspired by it, which I called:
AstroidEvasion
All I worked on with HTML is on this website.
