Pong was one of the first video games. And it also makes a good first (or early) Python project when you are learning to code.
We just published a course on the freeCodeCamp.org YouTube channel that will help you improve your Python and Pygame skills by teaching you how to build the classic pong game, but this time with extra features. This beginner's tutorial is a great way to start learning how to create engaging games with unique mechanics.
