 I have installed the slide puzzle for android on my Olive Pad to
test out pygame for the android, and there are two problems with it.
The first is that when I launch it from the applications screen and
then press the home button while it is still generating a puzzle, the
home screen displays, but it seems that the application screen reads
where I touch. The second is that it does not prevent the android from
turning off while running.

I will look into these two. I suspect that the first may just be
incorrect handling of the pause and resume events. The second is
because we don't take out a wakelock. That should be fixed in the next
release.Â
ÂI was also wondering if there is any way that I can work on
improving pygame for the Android. If nothing else, I was anyway about
to start a game for the Android, but if there is any useful work that
I can do otherwise, I would really be interested in helping.

I'm probably going to put together a forum for the android port this
weekend. I also plant to spend the next few days improving the port.
Among other things, I'd like to figure out how to let people
distribute the android port as part of their app, so that users don't
have to deal with a second download.Â

I would like I if it was easier to package them. I really liked your web app idea...
