That's a good question =) Basically I have had some problems with the Sprite class. It is likely that I didn't understand it, but I found difficult to have a changing background below a sprite, and I wasn't comfortable with the grouping mechanism. So I implemented my Widget class. Sprite and Widget are similar classes, so maybe we can have Widget subclass Sprite in the future...
Then I found that I was implementing the same main loop in all my games, so I added it to the engine. Then I wrote some commonly used widgets. Then I added an animations system borrowed from Panda3D. Except for the Widget class, I wouldn't say that qxp makes things differently than Pygame, it just implements some shortcuts. On 4/3/07, Charles Christie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Sounds pretty cool... What, specifically, have you done that's different than pygame?
