Empty window

Just a base Pygame window. It has an icon and a title, but it's empty.

Full screen

A game in which you can toggle between normal and full screen mode pressing F11. The hardest part of the game comes when you're in full screen mode. You must exit this mode pressing the Escape button.

Transparent rectangle

Just a transparent rectangle. There is some text behind it.

Cat animation

A walking cat. It never stops.

Jumping square

A square that jumps when you press the up arrow key (UP).

Bullet dodger

A fun and challenging mouse game where you must dodge bullets. How many points will you get?

Repeating background

This code creates a background with a image smaller than the window's resolution. It works by repeating the image until the background is filled.
