[pygame] Squirrel Game Demo

Here's a demo (5 MB EXE w/source) of the little squirrel-game engine
mentioned earlier. The sample level is 100x25 tiles (50x50 pixels each).
Though the code's messy it's actually a partial improvement on my
earlier scrolling-tile engine, due to a steady "camera" that always
draws the PC at a specific pixel location.

I'd appreciate thoughts on making the movement more satisfying.
Possibilities include:
-Gliding: hold Jump when falling to reduce terminal velocity
-Wall-grabbing without holding left/right
-Checking more points below the player, to land on the edges of platforms
-Jumping off walls
