Hello PyGame, Well after James Paige made two of his games available on GMArcade, one of our more active user alex_pof posted a question in our forums. Since James is the only PyGame user that I know of on GMArcade, I thought to extend his question to get a little more input for him.

It appears the PyGame not working with the Play Game Online on http://gmarcade.com is actually an unzipping problem...I'm going to have to examine my JAVA source to see why it doesn't unzip larger files...or something like that. -Matthew Kremer

. JAVA is only used to temporarily store the game and run it. For instance, someone uploads a .exe in a .zip file (files must be zipped to upload). JAVA loads this zip, unzips it, and runs the exe. Nothing on the site is JAVA, they are all exe files. Thanks, Matt Kremer Quoting James Paige
