Thanks Thomas. Much appreciated! :)
Ok thanks. I definitely need to test on more phones.
Yeah, a 2 column carousel might be a good idea :)

I have the same problem on an Ubuntu phone. Gestures on other websites
work fine, such as the 2048 game that's been going around.

I appreciate the work that went into the website, but I'll vote for a
cleaner interface. I think the following should be up front:
* What is pygame with a pretty set of images showing what it can do
* Link straight to download (including installation instructions)
* Link to documentation
* Link to
FWIW, I really like the design. I like the feel of everything being there
and navigating around it. I much prefer that to paginated websites, which I
feel I can get lost in. For me, more is definitely more. However, I agree
that so much information could be daunting to casual browsers and I think

For highlighting game updates, maybe use the widget steam has (I think it's
called: carousel, ex: http://store.steampowered.com/ ) It cycles through
large images + links.
I had a thought about the data density:
Thanks for the notes Jake.
Perhaps if I play a subtle highlighting animation on page load, and
highlight the arrow keys as the Left/Right buttons are that might help
people notice them.
btw, your phone is an android?
cheers,

Hi Nicco,
Thanks for all your points, many of which I agree with or plan to address
with future iterations. Especially the LoFi view will be a more
traditional simple UI like many m.example.com websites.
I will ponder your point about "recent releases" comment especially. This

Hi,
For mouse only users: there's some arrow buttons on the left and right of
the screen that follow the mouse height. So you don't need to move the
mouse up and down to the top of the view port.
The keyboard arrow buttons are mainly there to alert people to the fact
that you can use the keyboar
Hi,
I've tweaked the columns some, however not wider.
Why this column width you ask?
The columns are spaced to take nice advantage of phone widths (320px). So
the same design of column content can be reused for various sized
viewports. As anyone who has done any big 'responsive' website projec
The page doesn't change layouts, so decreasing page width makes content go
missing. AKA responsive design.

Playfulness +100 ! There are lots of gaming frameworks out there with
plenty of technical information. I love how the current site really is
a nod to a kid's creative mindset. Or at least ... how I think kid
mindset would be ... from my NES days.

Actually, I think that's another bug. If you zoom in (Ctrl +
scrollwheel), at some point the logo appears. So, that's

I second that. The old site design has an air of
playfulness about it that the new one currently lacks.
It looks bland and doesn't convey that pygame is
about having *fun*.

It's certainly a very unusual design. I could imagine horizontal scrolling
working, but I think having both horizontal and vertical scrolling is a bad
idea - it's too easy to get lost, and I feel like I want to zoom out to get
a full overview of the site. It also makes it tricky to use the site wit
Maybe now is the time to use Aikiman's new logo from last October.

Great that Pygame is doing something! A new website will show that

Hi, René,
Thanks for the early peek.
At first I thought the page was way too busy, and horizontal scrolling
would be tedious. Then I saw the category widgets and my worry went
away, this is nice.
A choice between scripted sliding and a CPU-friendly presentation would
be ideal, if that is wo

I don't want this critique to sound brutal, so I'll preface it with this:
I'm really glad you're doing the work of a redesign. But here are some
