Is there anyone else out there that is looking for this? A simple Python (2D) game engine? I’m not talking about something like PyGame, PyGlet, or Rabbyt, all of which are very good at what they do. What I’m talking about may use these technologies (I’m thinking PyGlet and Rabbyt) but would do so […]

I’d like to thank everyone that commented on my last post, and everyone that has emailed me ideas. They are all very much appreciated. It’s hard keeping up with everything that is happening in the Python world, and sometimes the coolest things are happening in far off places.
I got a few suggestions for Pycairo, which […]

I’m looking for […]

I just stumbled on this and I thought I’d pass it onto my fellow python programmers, it’s a python 3000 status update from Guido van Rossum.
Personally I’m looking forward to Python 3.0, I don’t know if I’ll like the break in backwards compatibility but a lot of the changes seem great.

Hello everyone,
I know that this blog has been rather quiet lately, but you can talk to my boss about that…but I think things are going to cool down a bit soon and I will be able to start posting here again regularly, and not just tutorials.
For the next little while I will be away from […]

Hey everyone, I’ve been getting hit with a bunch of spam comments over the last few days so I’ve made it so that all comments must be moderated before they will appear.
Sorry about this, I don’t like this form of comment posting, but hopefully after a few days I will be able to switch it […]

So I’ve been working on PyGame for PyWeek lately and I’ve been having a lot of fun. I also took a weekend off from my email so I did not notice that Lord Taran has been creating Spanish translations for a bunch of my PyGTK tutorials.
If you are interested in the Spanish tutorials check […]

So who knows, I […]

So after getting some comments from “mike” I decided to switch the forums over from phpBB to Vanilla, and moved over all of the comments.
Sadly if you are one of the few users who registered on the old forums you will have to register again, sorry for the inconvenience.
Please let me know what you think […]
