Well, my game is approaching what might be called completion. The only thing left for it to be playable are sound effects\/music. To be totally honest, I didn’t start 100% from scratch — I used the chimp.py example from the pygame 1.8 documentation as a starting place. I’ve never done this before, and didn’t feel like mucking around for hours to get the most basic things working. Later, I also grabbed pymike’s ezmenu to build my menus, though I made a few changes, and I’m considering rewriting with my own menu to add a nice background and stuff.<\/p>\n

Sadly, my game doesn’t really work well with any of the included levels from eugman, but I’ve built three levels myself in the meantime. Here’s some screenies:<\/p>\n
