Thanks - yes, after doing a bit of exploration with other languages, it seems that "abandoning" Pygame in the meantime makes little sense. I would be very interested in a $20 hard disk :). The best price I have found so far is $37 for a 20 GB refurbished laptop drive - which scares me a bit :). Fortunately, Linux has been serving me well, and I get the chance to use a Windows machine every now and then. If only I could get a Mac... ;) Hi Josh.

I'd like to put it through its paces myself. And yes, his shooter games are amazing. A plus is that most of them compile in Linux. ;D If you have any Linux questions, ask me, I consider myself an expert, but then again anybody else who uses Gentoo Linux on a daily basis could too. ;P Kenta Cho is who introduced me to the D language.

It's like C++ but easier and faster or something like that. I dunno. It sounded kinda cool to me anyway. What about D? It’s like C++ but easier and faster or something like that. I dunno.

It'll probably be trying new languages - but not C++ - there are many resources on this already. Another scripting language. I haven't decided yet on which one, though. :) Hi Dave :) .

Does this mean that you will try to program in new languages(c++,Java,Visual basic) or that you will start using new Python modules for game design?
