I have a fairly high opinion of Tk. Not "instead of" Pygame though. More "let's compare these tools, see what they do".
Some Tk game-related scripts attach here (not by me, I may be no help with code problems): http://worldgame.blogspot.com/2007/10/ppug-cubespace.html wxPython also has a following, thanks especially to Kevin Altis of PythonCard fame. He's done a good Life, turtle stuff... http://mybizmo.blogspot.com/2006/07/gotta-luv-that-gui-goo.html Kirby 2008/1/21 Albert Sweigart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > I am currently writing a book aimed at the general 9 to 12 year old range > that teaches Python through game programming.
