[OLPC-Games] Pygame game templates and cookbook

[Chris Hager]

hello,

you noticed that your demo app is consuming a lot of cpu-load? like 40 - 
80%. that shouldn't happen, please have a look at the pygame 
best-practices thread
http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2007-December/008263.html

also, in littermedia.py there is an error in line 44: instead of wav you 
meant name, i think.

best regards,
- chris

These templates for individual types of games come with "cookbook recipes" for how to add features and functionality.  The templates and cookbook are in the final stages of tweaking, and our pilot program using them will begin in late January.
