A simple, monster killing game built in Python through the Pygame modules. Users can start the game, which comes equipped with music and sound effects, shoot bullets to kill monsters which head towards them and keep track of how many monsters they've killed.

Game play screen of enemies coming for the player
Bullets used to kill enemies and rack up points on the score counter
Through the use of the Pygame modules and some fairly simple Python-based code this whole game was created.
You'll need to install Python on your system if you don't already have it - my system's running on Python 2 not 3, which can be downloaded here.
After that, in order to install Pygame, you'll need to make sure your pip and setuptools are up to date, which can be done through the instructions here.
Finally, you can install the Pygame modules using these instruction here
Python code that keeps the game running and updating as it runs
while 1: #run this loop forever
gf.check_events(hero, bullets, game_settings, screen, play_button) #call gf (aliased from game_functions module) and get the check_events
gf.update_screen(game_settings, screen, hero, bullets, enemies, play_button, scoreboard) # call the update_screen method
if game_settings.game_active:
hero.update() #update the hero flags
enemies.update(hero, game_settings.enemy_speed)
tick += 1
if tick % 50 == 0:
enemies.add(Enemy(screen, game_settings))
bullets.update() #call the update method in the while loop
for enemy in enemies:
for bullet in bullets: # get rid of bullets that are off the screen
if bullet.rect.bottom <= 0: #bullet bottom is at the top of the screen
bullets.remove(bullet) #call remove()
if len(bullets) >= 10:
bullets.remove(bullet)
if enemy.rect.colliderect(bullet.rect):
count += 1
count_update = "Enemies Killed: %d" %count
scoreboard = Scoreboard(screen, count_update)
enemies.remove(enemy)
bullets.remove(bullet)
