That script below is well known to not work with py2exe+pygame because of the default font path problem.
The expected result of running a naive py2exe'd pygame program that has a "pygame.font.Font(None..." line in it, is that you would get a message box directing you to a file named "<NameofExe>.exe.log" and the file would then have a python stack trace in it showing that "FreeSansBold.ttf" could not be found. It's possible that on 64-bit, this problem is manifesting itself as a crash.
So assuming this is your situation, you should either not use the default font (the best solution, in my opinion), or tell py2exe to package the font in the right place (google and the mailing list archives know how to do that)
However, it's entirely possible Zachary's problem is something completely different. I would try a set of 32-bit python and extensions to see if you get a different result.
