Re: [pygame] Linux binaries
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.................
you misunderstood me. I use Linux (Xubuntu), and I am going to release the source code for my game. The only reason I wanted to release a so-called "Binary Blob" is to give Linux users another option for using the game than installing from source. I also thought that Binary Blobs where faster than Source Blobs.
