Pyglet FTW!

For this pyweek, I'm going to use the pyglet library. I'm running some simple tests, and hopefully I can become profienct enough with the library that I can produce something worth while. Heres to me! :)

Me too! Are you on the stable or the alpha build? I'll be using the alpha, even though I haven't touched it at all yet...

I haven't decided pyglet or pygame. I am sooo proficient in pygame that I can develop in half the time. But I do like pyglet better, now that it works on all of my computers. So simple, and accelerated!

I don't think it should be too hard for you to learn. I just know how blazing fast I am with pygame that I can get to the meat of my game that much faster. But I'll probably go pyglet. If I go pyglet, it's alpha all the way :)

Yeah alpha is much better imho. Instead of importing a bunch of things you need, import pygame will usually do it. However, I can't get my sprite to move with the arrow keys? Could someone please leave an example ? Just like, it goes up 5 pixels with the up arrow key? Thanks!

Just to add on to above, so far I have http://pastebin.com/f3b046643 It loads the image fine, but doesn't move the sprite :/

I corrected your code here: http://pastebin.com/m28e55507

Sprite is now moving.

Many thanks! Hmm, the docs didn't make that clear. Thanks again!
