Pygame 1.8.0 release!
After a long delay of no releases, Pygame 1.8.0 has now been released!
Many were starting to fear that Pygame was no longer being actively worked on. Rumors were aplenty. A new version has quashed many of those rumors, providing some new features to Pygame.
Some of the added features of Pygame 1.8.0 include [pygame.org]:
- pygame.mask for collision masks
- pygame.scrap for clipboard support
- new and improved sprite groups
- blending support for filling and blitting surfaces
- saving surfaces as jpeg and png
- buffer access for Surface and Sound objects
- numpy support for pygame.surfarray and pygame.pixelarray
- New Windows and Mac installers.
