Pyskool - remake of Skool Daze and Back to Skool in Python and Pygame

Pyskool is a fairly faithful remake of the classic ZX Spectrum games 'Skool Daze' and 'Back to Skool' written in Python and Pygame. It should run on any platform for which Pygame is available, which includes Windows, Linux, OS X and the *BSDs.

Pyskool could also be regarded as an engine for building Skool-like games using a collection of PNGs, OGGs, and plain text configuration files. To demonstrate what's possible by tweaking the collection of PNGs, OGGs and config files, three "remixes" are included: Skool Daze Take Too, Ezad Looks, and Back to Skool Daze.

That game was really cool I loved playing it on zx spectrum

It would be nice to upgrade graphics, at least a bit, something like http://retrospec.sgn.net/users/rjordan/ ... creens.htm

You're not the first person to say that. Since my own graphic skills are somewhat lacking, I'd be happy to accept contributions. Some upgraded sound effects would be good too...

Just a quick note to say that Pyskool 0.5.2 has been released:

0.5.2 is a minor update that adds the jumping sound effect that should have been in the original Spectrum version of Skool Daze.

Another quick note to say that Pyskool 0.5.4 has been released.

0.5.4 fixes the nasty bug that causes a crash when Eric tries to get on the bike.
