2.1.1 - solstice meow

Don't worry, relax... have a pygame.

🌺🌻🌹🥀🌷🌼🌸💐💮🌺🌻🌹🥀🌷🌼🌸💐💮🌺🌻 🌼🌸 python3 -m pip install pygame==2.1.1 🌺🌻🌹🥀🌷🌼🌸💐💮🌺🌻🌹🥀🌷🌼🌸💐💮🌺🌻

The north enters a winter solstice and the south a summer solstice.
The shortest day of the year for people up top,
and the longest day of the year for people down under.
For people in the middle, it's pretty much the same every day ;)
Whatever the length of your day, this pygame is for you.

2.1.0 - the 7688 less lines of code release

This is a pretty minimal release in terms of user facing features. If you're happy with 2.0.3, you probably can stick with that one.

You can probably Ignore this release

• 7688 lines of source code were removed (more to come)
• There's no binary wheels for python2.7, or python3.5
• pygame no longer compiles from source with SDL1
• pygame 2.0.3 is there for python 2 users

What's Changed

There were lots of internal changes removing old code related to backwards compatibility with SDL1, and python2.

• Officially drop python2 (and 3.5) and SDL1 support by @​Starbuck5 in pygame/pygame#2817
• Remove most PY2/PY3 C compatibility code by @​Starbuck5 in pygame/pygame#2819
• Simple fix to swap numpy.float type out in favour of float by @​MyreMylar in pygame/pygame#2815
• Remove most SDL1/SDL2 compatibility c code by @​Starbuck5 in pygame/pygame#2823
• Ubuntu 18/20 SDL2 sdist CI, mac CI pp36 drop by @​ankith26 in pygame/pygame#2821
• SDL1 buildconfig removal by @​robertpfeiffer and @​illume in pygame/pygame#2824

Full Changelog: https://github.com/pygame/pygame/compare/2.0.3...2.1.0

2.1.0.dev2 - kick the wheels pre-release

This is a quick pre-release, which mainly contains python 2 and SDL 1 removal.

Please kick the wheels? Changes are very minimal over 2.0.3, except for python2 and SDL1 removal.

2.0.3 - the many many manylinux M1 && good bye SDL1 goodbye py2 release

🍂🍊🌰🥮🥧🌆🌇🔥🎃🎑🏮🍂🍊🍂🥮🌰🎃🥮 🥮 python3 -m pip install pygame==2.0.3 🍊🍂🥮🌰🥧🌇🔥🌆🎃🏮🍂🍊🏮🍂🥮🌰🥧🥮

Goodbye python 2, goodbye SDL 1.

Firstly, everyone raise their glasses for python 2. This will (probably) be our last python 2 supporting release. From your weird unicode, to your print statement that didn't need (). We will miss you, but we will always remember you.

Secondly, raise a second glass (at the same time!) for SDL1. Oh, SDL 1.2.x how great it was to know you and use you on dead platforms like BeOS and DOS, with your now exotic features like cdrom support. So many pixels, so many sound waves. You stuck around with us several years after retirement, and for that we thank you. SDL 1, take your gold watch and enjoy your retro computing nostalgia after-life.

The python 2 wheels will still be there, and you can still use SDL1 through the pygame 1.9.6 wheels if you need. But it's time for us to move on.

You can stop raising your glasses now. Onto the goodies!

Here we go...

There's lots of build improvements in here, including support for M1 macs and much better linux support (fullscreen and multi touch is working!). There's some regression fixes including on pygame.time.set_timer and when compiling from source on older linux distros. New in here is a loops keyword argument has been added to mixer.music.queue. The Camera module got some further improvements removing some unused legacy code and some code cleanups.

One very cool highlight is that are UCS4 unicode (including emoji) rendering is working. Rendering emoji and some other human languages is now possible!

We now have much better error newbie friendly messages for image/resource loading issues. Which should help people when they make typos or path issues when loading images. This is a common problem for newbies, so it's a really nice improvement.

A bunch of difficult bugs were fixed, and python 3.10 wheels for manylinux (which were accidentally forgotten in the 2.0.2 release). There were also some docs improvements for the new Cursor class and get_desktop_sizes function as well as some type improvements for the experimental _sdl2 modules.

On mac and linux we are using libjpegturbo, so on those platforms jpeg loading should be smoking fast. Additionally lots of our dependencies on mac and linux have been improved (and they share the same build scripts now). Things like fluidsynth being actually compiled in and support for the opus sound files being compiled in properly.

What's Changed

2.0.2 - O2 release

Pygame 2.0.2 - O2 release

Hello everyone! 2.0.2 is finally here!

🔷🔬 💧📘💙🌌❄️💎 🔷🔬 💧📘💙🌌❄️💎 🟦 pip install pygame --upgrade 🌌❄️💎🔷 🔬 💧📘💙🌌❄️💎 🔷🔬 💧📘💙

How do you summarize over 10 months of development, with over 40 contributors contributing 1000s of lines of fixes and enhancements? If you're interested in seeing the changes in more detail, you can check out the release notes for the 2.0.2.dev2 and 2.0.2.dev4 pre-releases. Below is a summary of some highlights.

2.0.2 release greatest hits

• Rumble support for Joysticks and Controllers
• Python 3.10 support
• MacOS 10.9- MacOS 10.13 support for the first time in the 2.x series (intel chips)
• SDL 2.0.14 -> SDL 2.0.16
• MP3 music support for Mac and Linux (Windows already had it)
• Lots of work refining the type hints.
• Documentation improvements galore, and the documentation build system was updated.
• Native webcam support for Windows

And many more bugfixes and enhancements to improve the pygame experience.

2.0.2.dev4

Pygame 2.0.2.dev4

python3 -m pip install pygame==2.0.2.dev4 --pre

The previous pre-release 2.0.2.dev2 was aimed to test whether our new build machinery for releasing pygame worked. And it worked great, except on Mac. Now mac wheels are hopefully fixed in this pre-release. In fact, we now have Mac wheels that support down to MacOS 10.9, unlike previous 2.x releases, that only supported 10.13 and above.

Apart from that there's a bunch of other nice stuff in here too. Including python 3.10 support, a new Windows camera module, support for rumble controllers/joysticks, support for building on windows with MSYS2 (gcc and friends for windows), and significant documentation improvements and even a new SVG/vector version of the logo (as you can see above).

Hopefully this will be the last pre release. Next up we can do the real 2.0.2 release... Unless people find some serious issues when testing this one?

Docs + Type Hints + Examples

@​rethanon fixed up some type hint and documentation errors in #2697 and #2717.
