Method Details

addEventGroup(self, event=())

return a Event.EventGroup

At this point, this is just a convenience to get a new Group, but it could at some point in the future keep track of all groups in the Game.

addGroup(self, sprites=[], layer=None)

return a SpriteGroup

At this point, this is just a convenience to get a new Group, but it could at some point in the future keep track of all groups in the Game.

addLayer(self, size=None)

return a Drawable.Layer and keep track.

Each Game has a list (.layers) of all the layers in the game.

checkCollisions(self)

Defaults to no collision checks.

Game.mainloop() will call this function once each time through the loop. Subclasses should override to check collisions and perform the needed actions.
