Thanks! I've been playing around with Cocos2d, and it is *awesome*! Sure, it hasn't been updated since 2012, but does it *need* to be updated? Sure, some other features would be nice, but it's good at the state that it's in. It's the newest framework out of them all(PyGame and PyGlet). It's too bad that there is a lack of doc's on it. That's why I want to make tutorials on it!
I spend about 20 minutes just playing around with the actions in Cocos. It's way of doing things is awesome, and it makes sense, but it takes time to get used to it's way of doing things(like to understand about subclassing layers). Anyway, thank you for your help! Maybe I'll have learned enough of Cocos to participate in then next PyWeek(whenever that might be!).
