[pygame] A new Pygame/sForzando creation

["Nathaniel L. Budin" <natb@brandeis.edu>]

Hey all!  I'm just writing here to announce the availability of a beta 
version of Ant March, a small arcade-style game in which you shoot ants 
and spiders.  It's written using Pygame and a heavily-modified version of 
sForzando.

You can download the beta from:
http://www.brandeis.edu/~natb/AntMarch10Installer.exe (Windows py2exe)
http://www.brandeis.edu/~natb/antmarch-hifi.tar.gz    (Source code)

If all goes well, I will put up a publicly-viewable web page within the 
next week or so from which the game can be downloaded.  Please let me know 
if you discover any problems (I won't say bugs... :-D) in the game.

PS: Regarding sForzando, the project had been abandoned for several 
months, but is now seeing new activity.  We're completely rewriting and 
refactoring the API to be more flexible in terms of what backend libraries 
it can use, and what languages can call it.  Upon completion of the new 
API, we expect to be able to use sForzando from Python, C++, or Java 
(through Jython), and to be able to have it call SDL, OpenGL, or AWT 
backends.

Nat
