Not really.
this is how I do it... I encapsulate my game.Game states in classes.
each has these methods:
- handle_events(events)
- update(elapsed_time)
- draw(screen)
- load()
Each of the game.Game classes can have children game.Games. Each of
the children ones get passed in events, elapsed_time and the screen.
This way I can have my intro run, and when it's done deactivate it,
and activate another part of the game.
class Top(game.Game):
def load(self):
self.games.append(Intro())
Anyway... that's the basic idea. There's lots of other ways of doing it.
cu,
