i figured out a better way.
All the data is written to a dictionary which in turn written to a py file.
All the py file are compiled and and are INSIDE the exe.
So I deliver ONLY 1 exe.
everything including fonts are inside the exe.

You may as well use some normal encryption using some lib, this zipped
method is a little odd. .. unless you want something to get kids into

This is ridiculous. Your proposed measures 1. Disrupt normal computer

No offence to you or to anyone who may think contrary, but disrupting

I think you're referring to fullscreen, which doesn't actually "lock up the
OS", it just takes over the screen, and all functions of the OS are still
as usual. And a critical difference is that fullscreen is functi
It is stated in the opening screen.
some games lock up the os and you need to exit the game to have access to
the os. Does that make the game a malware?

If you're clearing the Windows clipboard, you might want to let the user know
that. Very prominently. Otherwise your program is basically malware in my
opinion.
It's still, in my opinion, malware, but at least you'd be warning the user so
they'd know that running your program will cripple thei
Dear Vincent and Dan,
All points taken positively. I'm still learning Python and all this help
and advice is making me write better and more pythonic code.
I will leave this path and continue on the one I started traversing.
I thank you all very much. May you be well.

I agree with Dan.
Also, there're some great answers over here:

Why bother? The average user won't care, the skilled users will see
through your ruse like it's plastic wrap, and the ones who care but aren't
that good will just find out what the skilled users did on the internet.

Thanks for the responses.
Firstly I am a bit amused that everybody assumes that I am writing some
kind of game. I never mentioned any game. Is it because of Pygame? :) :)
I am using Pygame as my graphic interface because it is easy to display all

Diliup,
My understanding is that anything you load into memory can be dumped. So
if you're just using this to load all game assets at startup, people could
extract the assets by duping what the interpreter has loaded into memory
(the copies of the unencrypted files).

"the password is obfuscated and saved to a py file"
I'm curious about this part, how would you do that?
Do you plan to distribute only your byte code and hope that no one will
reverse it?
Also, why do you need a double encryption? If you want to prevent people
