How about doing some pre/post gameplay? Such as menus character/player creation player/inventory persistence ect.. while doing this you can figure a goo scaling algorithm to fit your game tonall screens.

Also avgood time, if you havn't already, to combine scene and ui using a SceneView

what do you think @mikael

@cvp

well look at that... i think its all beena lie... lol jk but i do wonder what the method named might be doing that may be a benefit?

@Moe sure that sprite.png in the same folder as your script? For me, it is ok

import ui, scene
image = ui.Image('sprite.png')
image.show()                                                  # this works
texture = scene.Texture(image)                # this works
texture = scene.Texture('sprite.png') # this works

from my understanding shoudn't it be ui.Image.named('sprite.png')

@Moe @cvp

You could use io. BytesIO in a Context manager soyou dont need to save and open the images. and when you use ui.Image.from_data(image_data[, scale]) and set scale to your IOS device pixel/point ratio. most comonly 2. (1:1, 2:1, 3:1 ...) this will scale your image properly to the screen. you can get this by calling scene.get_screen_scale()

heres an example:

import scene
import Image
import io

cache = dict({
    "img1":"./image1.png",
    "img2":"./image2.png",
})

for k,v in cache.items():
    with Image.open(v) as img:
        resized_img=img.resize(
            (int(img.size[0]/2), int(img.size[1]/2)), Image.ANTIALIAS)
            
        with io.BytesIO() as byteStream:
            resized_img.save(byteStream, "tiff")    
            ns.cache[k]=scene.Texture(ui.Image.from_data(byteStream.getvalue(), scene.get_screen_scale()))

Note that Scene is a subclass of EffectNode, so you can use a custom Shader for full-scene post-processing effects. Unlike a vanilla EffectNode however, a scene’s effects_enabled attribute is set to False by default.

        sidec = sidea + sideb
        v['label1'].text = f'sidec = {sidec}' # changed to fstring 

Also remember to use code format on posts 😀 thnk you!

I have noticed a slight error in the game. Occasionally, I will be playing the game, and face a solid wall of gray asteroids. How do I avoid the wall? I can’t. Please, fix this?

There should always be a gap. What I think is happening here is the gap is being placed above the View Frame and we just cannot see it. I ran some test after changing the following inside Brush class

def __init__(self, game):
        self.game=game
        self.crateMin=200
        self.crateMax=780
        self.gaps=list()
        self.gapSize=4
        self.gapMin=4
        self.gapMax=6
        self.gameObjects=self.game.gameObjects
        self.startPos=Point(Screen.Width()+128, self.gameObjects.Floor)
        self.ShieldBoost()

i did not see this happen again but there could still be a chance somehow. all you need to do is limit the hieght for spawning the objects. you could also do a last check to insure there is a gap pressent before returning.

Very well done!

Currently, I’m trying to set up an alarm, but I don’t know like any built-in sounds with the sound module. Please help?

Example:

import sound

effect=sound.play_effect('arcade:Powerup_3')

As you said there is just omz but all of us here on the forum help him out. Pythonista just received a really big update recently and from my understanding he is already working on the next one.
