Pygame (Python Game Development) Tutorial - 34 - Start Screen Logic

[blandon]

I don't use game intro and game engine as functions, I left them as while loops, True/False keys in gk (game keys dictionary):

gk = {"gameExit": True, "gameOver": False, "intro": True}
while gk['intro']:
gameDisplay.fill(white)
screen_message(...)
pygame.display.update()
clock.tick(15)
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
pygame.quit()
quit()
if event.type == pygame.KEYDOWN:
if event.key == pygame.K_c:
gk['gameExit'] = False
gk['intro'] = False
if event.key == pygame.K_q:
pygame.quit()
quit()
while not gk['gameExit']:
while gk['gameOver']:
gameDisplay.fill(white)
screen_message("Game over", red, -50, size="large")
screen_message("Press C to play again or O to quit", black, 50, size="small")
pygame.display.update()

Why did adding the if statements get rid of the lagging issue?

There is stiil a problem in the code. While we are at GameOver condtion, we only have to use Q or C options but we can't use pygame.QUIT to close the game by the close button. We must modify a bit of code after the GameOver is True by adding Pyagme.QUIT event and exiting the program by close button . Btw The best Videos of Pygame

Just a question; since there's nothing going on in your start screen, why update the image at all? Why not fill the background and put the messages to screen outside the loop and be done with it?
