pydance is a dancing game similar to Dance Dance Revolution, Pump It Up, or Technomotion. To play these games, you typically dance on a platform or mat, timing your steps to match arrows scrolling up the screen to the beat of the music that plays. pydance supports many different arrangements of panels, two players, keyboard and pad play, most features of the proprietary arcade games, lets you write your own steps for songs, and is compatible with other popular dancing games for Windows like Kick It Up, Stepmania, or Dance With Intensity.

Pygame is a set of python modules written to help create games in Python. The package is wrapped around SDL and several of the SDL daughter libraries. There are currently several released open source games and applications built with Pygame. Version 1.1 adds a large list of features and cleanup bugfixes.

Highlights of Pygame features are listed: (items with an asterisk "*" are new for Pygame 1.1)

• * Full OpenGL support through pyopengl
• * Transform module for image scaling, rotation, and flips
• Image loading from many formats, with alpha and colorkeys
• Streaming music data; mp3, mod, ogg (and more)
• CDROM support with audio playback
• Joystick input handling
• Antialiased Truetype font rendering
• Multiple sound channel mixer
• Cross platform (with multiple video backends on each platform)

  The package also comes with complete documentation, tutorials, and many playable examples. There is an active mailing list and IRC channel, which makes getting started much more accessible.

  Pygame takes SDL's C interface and turns it into a more pythonic package, with objects, exceptions, and other utility modules.

  Aside from compiling and installing from source, there is also a full installer for Windows, RPM support for Linux, and a separate DEB and unofficial apt repository for Debian. For FreeBSD there is an active port available. A compressed archive with the compiled binaries is available for MacOS, and coming soon for BeOS.

PyRunner is a very simple game in which the player runs around a small world (level) trying to collect all of the treasure, while at the same time avoiding the enemy guards defending it. To get the treasure, you will have to climb ladders, swing across bars, and dig through brick floors. Neither the player nor the guards have weapons, but the player's ability to instantly dig away the floor on either side acts as both a defence and offence. When the floor is dug, enemies fall through to lower floors or become trapped trapped if the floor is thick. The floor will regenerate after a few seconds, killing anyone trapped there. The player can also fall in the same holes and be killed, though!
