Re: [pygame] Very beginner level question

The screen will lock up if you don't collect events.  Obviously, look at the
tutorials mentioned, but the basic idea is to collect events each frame with
pygame.event.get() or something similar.  I use the following as a basic
event checker:
for event in pygame.event.get():
    if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
        pygame.quit()
        sys.exit() #note you have to import sys
