I'd like to get my sons (age 10 and 8) programming, but the only hook that I think will get them started is the ability to make a kinda cool game.
Ideally, I'd like to see a tutorial that leads them down the path of making a starter non-lame game. A specific example I've found, for Flash-based games, is at the KongregateLabs site: http://www.kongregate.com/labs Can PyGame achieve the same thing? Are there any existing tutorials or projects that cover similar material? More thoughts at http://webseitz.fluxent.com/wiki/z2008-12-23-WebGamePlatformContest
