This is marked as 'experimental'. Is it a good idea to use this for PyWeek? Thanks, Davy

I think you should use it, and accept that some people won't be able to run your game. I would make it very clear in the readme, and maybe even do a version check in your game that aborts with a helpful error message if pygame.version.vernum[:2] != (1, 9).

i've used it before and never had any problems with it. i highly doubt anyone will be using a version of pygame older than 1.9.2, so you should be just fine. afaik, the 'experimental' nature of the module is just the api. it is very stable in use.

Thanks for the input guys - think I will play it overly safe this time around and use Pygame.draw.
