Extending the pygame framework
I've been having a go at creating a framework called Gamma, but it's in very early development and focused on an ECS model for game development which I know is maybe a little niche.
- Inventory System
- Text Input UI

Gamma - Pygame ECS Engine
The engine can be found at https://github.com/rik-cross/gamma. The repository includes an 'examples' folder, showing how to use most of the above features.

Playable Sandbox Now Available
Due to pygbag#16, the built-in function does not work correctly in the pygame-wasm environment. I noticed the patch to set_timer was buggy, so I made an improvement to the patch by handling other behaviors mentioned in the docs (e.g. disabling the timer and discarding an old timer for the same event).

Getting a game using multiple libraries on a browser?
On pygbag, numpy(3.10) and pymunk(3.11) are supported but not on the same python version. for other packages have a look here https://github.com/pygame-web/archives/tree/main/repo/pkg and for missing ones make requrests here https://github.com/pygame-web/pygbag/issues/37 and possible add a use case to help with porting.

How to host python game on website
Basically you can, recently a package that has also been added to `pygame/pygame-web` allows you to create all the necessary assets to be able to run a `pygame` game in a browser. The library is called `pygbag`: https://github.com/pygame-web/pygbag you can read about it there, it still is in a bit of an experimental stage so if you have questions, I'd suggest you joining the `pygame` discord server and ask questions in the `#pygame-web` channel. This is pretty exciting, you can see examples of this here: https://pmp-p.github.io/pygame-wasm/, these also have a console added and other stuff but it can be made to be a fullscreen thing too.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing gamma and pygbag you can also consider the following projects:
ecs_pattern - ECS pattern (Entity Component System) for creating games on python
