Game development 😋
Game development is a great motivator to learn diverse topics like AI (in the old sense, like algorithms), graphics, networking.
But it is unlikely to learn actual game development.
It's a bit of a sweet fallacy. We liked to play games, and imagine it would be cool if people liked our games.
But writing a polished game is hard work, and mostly unrewarding. Entertainment industry is ungrateful.
Anyway, it's fun to learn. The means is more interesting than the end.
I suggest you limit scope and join PyWeek or Ludum Dare.
(Note: in a distant past,I participated in~5 pyweeks, and had some small flash games sold)
hmmmmmmmmmmI was gonna go ahead and use these
t'all seems straightforward enuff
