Code your own modern versions of retro classics inspired by the greatest video games of the 1980s.

Code the Classics Volume II examines the seminal video games of the 1980s and shows you how to create your own games, using Python, Pygame Zero, and an IDE.

Full of game design tips and tricks from the masters, the book breaks down the fundamental tasks needed for every game: display images, play sound effects, and receive inputs from the keyboard or a game controller.
