I was originally planning on doing a growing Snake game (https://github.com/BreakoutMentors/GrowingSnake), but realize this will be too hard. After doing well on animations (day 5), many struggled with the paddle game (day 6). So we definitely don't want to do a huge jump into more difficult arrays and functions. \n\nI'm proposing making a non-growing version of snake: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/2627038/. They would start with a \"blank\" pygame project (https://github.com/CoderDojoSV/beginner-python/blob/master/Day-7/blank%20pygame%20project.py) and be responsible for creating everything. So it would not be a more difficult project than pong, but they would start with less. Add on features for the advanced kids can be space to replay, high score, etc.\n\nWhat do you guys think? Does this sound like the right approach?\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/bskinny129","@type":"Person","name":"bskinny129"},"datePublished":"2014-03-12T18:50:10.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":6},"url":"https://github.com/14/beginner-python/issues/14"}
