When you have an opaque bar of a solid color ("pygame.draw.rect(surface,
(255,0,0), (rect), 1)") then it looks red. If you put it over a black
background, the pixels look darker. If I compensate by making all the
pixels there somewhat lighter, lighter colored objects, such as asteroids
will look wrong. Anyway, after I looked at the somewhat darker rectangle
for a while, it began looking right. It was just a change from the
(255,0,0) bar to something like (150,0,0), which is how it should be.
