suggestions for a basic staring script would be greatly appreciated

I'm involved with two projects that do similar things, and work on Python 3:

cx_Freeze (http://cx-freeze.sourceforge.net/ ) works in quite a similar way, to produce an executable for your application, along with a set of associated files.

Pynsist (http://pynsist.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ ) is more different: it produces a Windows installer that unpacks the Python files onto the target user's computer. It's quite new, but there is a pygame example:
