Most of this has been on discord, but here a small bit of it bubbled into a Github issue: https://github.com/pygame-community/pygame-ce/issues/1932. Also here: https://github.com/pygame-community/pygame-ce/issues/2091.

I talked about this with my fellow pygame-ce contributor, and we believe we have a fix. See https://github.com/pygame-community/pygame-ce/pull/2118

Here's some additional context on the optimizations I was referring to: https://github.com/pygame-community/pygame-ce/pull/2019

For pygame specifically, there is no better resource than the documentation and code itself: Documentation, Source Code. Tutorials are in the documentation too.

I'd be happy to get some functions that you think would be good targets to make support kwargs. I opened an issue identifying 5 I think are good targets, and trying to clarify our guidance on them: https://github.com/pygame-community/pygame-ce/issues/1990. In the c code you can find which functions are which by some using PyArg_ParseTuple and some using PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords.

pygame never used it, but its popular python library, heard good things about it. i suggest if you are not trying to make resource intensive game, and you want to learn python which is a really valuable skill.

Pygame is a framework of python modules and libraries for writing games. It is modular and great for learning the basics of the Python programming language.

There two parts to sprite class. One is in cython and the there one in python. Would have to go through code to see which one their still using. Every test I have run. Sprite and Group will handle more images. With out frame rate dropping below 60.

To code a game, at first you should be familiar with some basic CS concepts and DSA. All of the languages above have modules and frameworks for games. I would suggest considering to start learning Python with DSA and then pygame (A Python library for creating games).

Pygame uses SDL_ttf under the hood to work with fonts. If you’re just wanting to load your own font you can just use pygame.font.Font() and point it to a ttf file. If you’re wanting to mess with the font object or do something else with the raw font data, you might want to check out https://github.com/pygame/pygame/blob/main/src_c/font.c and https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL_ttf/blob/main/SDL_ttf.c to get an idea of what pygame and SDL are doing under the surface.
