note that get_pressed checks if the key is down at the time of the
call. If you press the key and release it between two loop iterations,
this keypress will not be caught by get_pressed. This shouldn't be an
issue though, unless you're game is not getting a lot of fps. Usually
a key is pressed long enough so that calling get_pressed once per
iteration catches it.
