I liked using videos because they start at nothing and if you follow along you end up with a game that you can understand the code when looking at it. I did try initially to figure out how to put stuff together myself, but without learning the language it was impossible. I'm better at it now and can understand MOST of what you have written there. From looking at it, I think it is want is known as a "context manager" or "state machine". I hit a wall on that and realized I was better of scrapping it and starting over, so I figured I'd make a jumpy game (that is the first game that is actually fun for me to play) and pick up what I can from it. From Kidscancode I've learned a lot, even if not "the best". There are lots of videos that use the Turtle module, but I'm not really interested in that.
I'm kinda done with Jumpy for now, so I'm thinking if I want to start on my redos of my dungeon game, my star con 2 clone, or start the "mines of mars" clone. Basically all tutorials are single state arcade style games, and that's not the stuff I normally like to play.
