Re: Re: PyGame slowdown

There is one advantage with the higher frame rates though. It will give
better reaction to user input which admittedly isn't always
particularly needed but I can be useful for certain games.

Agree with you 100% on this.

I've programmed a few games in Blitz and .Net and it seemed the rage to
get over 100FPS.  Thing is, the screen you're watching doesn't change
100 times a second so what's the point!?  So long as you get in about
60-75FPS then I think it's satisfactory.

But I never saw the persons code, it was simply a question on a forum
and I couldn't answer as I don't have the experience in PyGame.
