PyWeek - Game Complete

Ok, the game is finally done and I've uploaded my first copies of my final submissions. It's only been tested on Windows with pygame, but I see no reason why it souldnt' work on Linux. It doesn't work on my Debian Sarge, but that's because the Debian pygame package is ancient.

Anyone want to test it?

Looks like a midi error. I'll allow midi to be disabled.

I installed timidity and it worked find. Good job! It was fun to play, but hard to move the claw diagonally which was bit annoying.

Game runs perfectly, on my Debian system, provided I run it using 'python2.4'. Nice work! Looks great.

Ok, I've added some exception checking on the midi call in case anyone else has the same problem andrew_j_w previously had.

As for the game working on Debian, I'm glad to hear it!

Worked perfectly for me after converting the MID file to an MP3. I'm on Debian but I use a custom Python install.
