PyWeek - Awesome block game 2 -- return of the block : The story of one block against the world

Like my previous game I'm hoping to have a minimalist design.The only dependency should end up being pygame so anyone will be able to play. I'm still rather new to programming so help and advice is always appreciated.

Look at them logs. Beautiful. Too bad I'm changing games because some of my code is bad.

[ eugman @ 19:51 ] What works, what doesn't, and how to fix it.

Since there are so many issue with the games I'm going to try and keep a list of all the programs that worked for me including the ones that needed changed or run from the command line or if I was just missing a library.

Since I'll need to update it I'm going to host it on my site. You can see it here.

[ eugman @ 16:18 ] What works in linux.

The following games work just fine for me without having to use the command line. I click on the run_game.py and choose run with python and these games just work.

Focus your effort on them.

[ eugman @ 13:47 ] Bask in the awesome blockiness

This is the menu screen for my game. The three shapes up top are my score. The highest I've gotten is 324.
On the screen it looks like I got 279.

[ eugman @ 01:36 ] Rollin' on the rivah.

I've been working on a game where you climb up a river. It's a bit of fun as is but I'm hoping to make it more interesting.

I'm wondering if anyone thinks I can get good production score even if everything is made using pygame.draw

You can get the latest version at my svn page You only need main and euclid.

[ eugman @ 02:24 ] What is essential to a good production score?

I am going to be using only pygame.draw for a my graphics, so I am wondering what I need to make sure I have a good productions score.
for example is music a must?

[ eugman @ 18:14 ] loggggggggggggggggggggg

Everything is going to be done with pygame.draw . So what I'm wondering is if my block player should have block logs or if I should approximate roundness with a bunch of rectangles.

[ eugman @ 01:30 ] Previous work

To what degree am I allowed to make use of my previous entry? It's released under public domain and commented so anyone foolish enough to use my code may.
