[PyGame] Confused with Pygame documentation. (Newbie here)

[deanhystad]

There is a section in the forum devoted to writing games. You'll get the best response posting there.

And here's some pretty good Pygame documentation.

https://www.pygame.org/docs/

From the documentation:

move_ip()
moves the rectangle, in place
move_ip(x, y) -> None
Same as the Rect.move() method, but operates in place.

So this code:

self.rect.move_ip(-self.speed, 0)

Moves the rectangle, self.rect in the x direction by -self.speed and in the y direction by 0.

And there is documentation about rectangles here.
