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.
Before we get to What's new in pygame 2.1.1...
At the bottom of this post we have a special treat... some games people have made this year. Some of the themes: Aliens, moose, cars, giant robots, trees, and... menus

Be sure to update your CMake build scripts accordingly!</li> <li>Added the hint SDL_HINT_APP_NAME to let SDL know the name of your application for various places it might show up in system information</li> <li>Added SDL_RenderGeometry() and SDL_RenderGeometryRaw() to allow rendering of arbitrary shapes using the SDL 2D render API</li> <li>Added SDL_SetTextureUserData() and SDL_GetTextureUserData() to associate application data with an SDL texture</li> <li>Added SDL_RenderWindowToLogical() and SDL_RenderLogicalToWindow() to convert between window coordinates and logical render coordinates</li> <li>Added SDL_RenderSetVSync() to change whether a renderer present is synchronized with vblank at runtime</li> <li>Added SDL_PremultiplyAlpha() to premultiply alpha on a block of SDL_PIXELFORMAT_ARGB8888 pixels</li> <li>Added a window event SDL_WINDOWEVENT_DISPLAY_CHANGED which is sent when a window changes what display it's centered on</li> <li>Added SDL_GetWindowICCProfile() to query a window's ICC profile, and a window event SDL_WINDOWEVENT_ICCPROF_CHANGED that is sent when it changes</li> <li>Added the hint SDL_HINT_VIDEO_EGL_ALLOW_TRANSPARENCY to allow EGL windows to be transparent instead of opaque</li> <li>SDL_WaitEvent() has been redesigned to use less CPU in most cases</li> <li>Added SDL_SetWindowMouseRect() and SDL_GetWindowMouseRect() to confine the mouse cursor to an area of a window</li> <li>You can now read precise mouse wheel motion using 'preciseX' and 'preciseY' event fields</li> <li>Added SDL_GameControllerHasRumble() and SDL_GameControllerHasRumbleTriggers() to query whether a game controller supports rumble</li> <li>Added SDL_JoystickHasRumble() and SDL_JoystickHasRumbleTriggers() to query whether a joystick supports rumble</li> <li>SDL's hidapi implementation is now available as a public API in SDL_hidapi.h</li> </ul> <p>Windows:</p> <ul> <li>Improved relative mouse motion over Windows Remote Desktop</li> <li>Added the hint SDL_HINT_IME_SHOW_UI to show native UI components instead of hiding them (defaults off)</li> </ul> <p>Windows/UWP:</p> <ul> <li>WGI is used instead of XInput for better controller support in UWP apps</li> </ul> <p>Linux:</p> <ul> <li>Added the hint SDL_HINT_SCREENSAVER_INHIBIT_ACTIVITY_NAME to set the activity that's displayed by the system when the screensaver is disabled</li> <li>Added the hint SDL_HINT_LINUX_JOYSTICK_CLASSIC to control whether /dev/input/js* or /dev/input/event* are used as joystick devices</li> <li>Added the hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_DEVICE to allow the user to specify devices that will be opened in addition to the normal joystick detection</li> <li>Added SDL_LinuxSetThreadPriorityAndPolicy() for more control over a thread priority on Linux</li> </ul> <p>Android:</p> <ul> <li>Added support for audio output and capture using AAudio on Android 8.1 and newer</li> <li>Steam Controller support is disabled by default, and can be enabled by setting the hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_STEAM to "1" before calling SDL_Init()</li> </ul> <p>Apple Arcade:</p> <ul> <li>Added SDL_GameControllerGetAppleSFSymbolsNameForButton() and SDL_GameControllerGetAppleSFSymbolsNameForAxis() to support Apple Arcade titles</li> </ul> <p>iOS:</p> <ul> <li>Added documentation that the UIApplicationSupportsIndirectInputEvents key must be set to true in your application's Info.plist in order to get real Bluetooth mouse events.</li> <li>Steam Controller support is disabled by default, and can be enabled by setting the hint SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_STEAM to "1" before calling SDL_Init()</li> </ul></div> </details>
We also have a new Vector2d.copy() method, a way to check if rect in rect. Some draw assembly optimizations are enabled on aarch64 (M1 and rasbperry pi), and rect drawing is much faster.
Work continues on code cleanup, and we reached a milestone where all PRs are checked for code formatting and linting. Work on enforcing stricter C level static analysis checks is in progress. Our examples were cleaned up to use simplified color names, and semantic variable names for colors (instead of naming the variables after colors). Work on other cleanups progresses too... but we can tell you about that in the next release notes!
-O3 in #2876pygame.draw.rect bug where unfilled drawn rects had weird corners in #2927. In the process of this pygame.draw.rect saw some large speedups.IOError instead of FileNotFoundError in #2922__contains__ operation to the Rect class, allowing you to check if Rect1 in Rect2 in #2897python -m pygame.docs will launch a local copy of the docs now. #2826AbstractGroup in #2896 and #2930sprite.LayeredDirty.set_timing_treshold in favor of set_timing_threshold. #2921Vector.rotate_ip_rad methods in favor of the more consistent Vector.rotate_rad_ip. #2863pygame.math. #2856get_num_audio_devices and get_audio_device_name with get_audio_device_names. #2841, #2920setup.py lint to keep the codebase squeaky clean. @illume integrated it into the pygame development workflow by adding setup.py format and a format test to CI, and formatted all the code in the repository. #2285, #2857, #2842Thanks to you! It's hard making these release notes (Thanks @Starbuck5 and @illume). If we've missed someone, or made a mistake... firstly sorry! Secondly, feel free to get in touch with us to make a correction.

Here's a few things people have released recently using pygame (but made mostly with their own sweat and tears).
And then this summer, tank king Lord Commentarios of Freeduck and Spooky made "Tempest Run" for a jam hosted by this server:
A cross between Tempest (1981) and Temple Run (2011), "Tempest Run" puts a new spin on those iconic games and was made for the Pygame Community Summer Jam 2021, whose theme was "Recreate an old game with a twist."

It's been a year since the Typhon Incident, when a biomonster from the Age of Superpowers awoke and rampaged across the Earth. Aegis Overlord, having consolidated power on Luna, begins preparation to extend their domination across the solar system. The L5 Alliance attempts to maintain a fragile peace while their member-states bicker and war among themselves.

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!
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.
Here's what we have in this release for you in a bit more detail. If you want ALL the details please scroll to the bottom to see the full commits and code diffs.
Thanks to all for reporting issues, doing reviews and helping out in other ways than code contributions. Especially issue reporters, wiki editors, discord mods/folk, redditors, patreons, and such like.
As all releases, this one too would not have been possible without support from the community, from people submitting issues, to people making PRs for all kinds of improvements, from typo fixes, to fixing complex segfaults in C code, every contribution matters a lot!
Special thanks are in order with with this release. For help with last minute testing by /dev/mario, @pkulev, @solozobov, @interstellartaurus, fxbeta and @kajott. Thanks!

Thanks to all for reporting issues, doing reviews and helping out in other ways.
We have a pygame 2.0.3 milestone tracking the rest of the work that's most likely going to go into it. The Mac arm64 support had some good progress, and there are some manylinux improvements to help with some linux issues. Hopefully some of that will make it into the release.
Please test, and if you notice anything please raise an issue so we can have a look. Would be much appreciated :)

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

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?
@rethanon fixed up some type hint and documentation errors in #2697 and #2717.
@rethanon fixed up the playmus examples, and added a good note to the mixer.music docs in #2745. @rethanon continued tidying the music docs in #2751.
@vnmabus enhanced the type hints by moving to use Sequence in places. (#2682)
New contributor @Mega-JC made some beautiful upscaled logos for us in #2704. I mean, just check out the README now 😍.

The Age Of Aquarius,

a new pygame to play with :)
This is a bug fix release, with a bunch of features and optimizations thrown in for good measure. Thank you to the people reporting issues related to pygame 1 compatibility. Some of them will take a bit longer to discuss, work through, and find solutions. We say goodbye to Travis the CI that served us well. We said goodbye to the pygame discord that had grown too big, only for a few more to have sprouted up in its place. We said hello to the patreon.com/pygame and we took a breather for a little bit.
Enough bla bla bla... what's new?
Firstly, a few backwards compatibility fixes have been made.
Dan Lawrence @MyreMylar worked some more on the alpha blitter so it's more compatible.
René Dudfield (@illume) worked on making some old audio driver and video driver names that had been renamed work in backwards compatible env vars, SDL_VIDEODRIVER=windib, SDL_AUDIODRIVER=pulse or dsound #2292
Ankith (@ankith26) did a major event refactor in #2357 #2404 #2416 and #2398 This not only cleaned up the event processing code, but fixed a bunch of issues an introduced some new features making event processing more comfy along the way.
Here's a graph to treat your eyes, on an event benchmark where getting lots of events has been sped up a lot. As you can see, its a 7 times speed up. There are also less peaks in there, due to less thread locking on the event queue and using batching API calls.
Thanks to @bwright8 for adding a unit test for image.load_basic() #2307 and also for adding some Surface.convert tests in #2368.
@kristofszentes made a unit test for image.load_extended() in #2324
Paul m. p. P. (@pmp-p) fixed typo in windib driver handler condition https://github.com/pygame/pygame/pull/2342
The Dog Lulu (@Iamsoto) updated the TYPE_HEAD macro to use a newer API #2363
@aminouhammou added a unit test for display.gl_get_attribute() #2375
Tom Fryers (@TomFryers) Capitalised "Python" in the import message. #2389
Pierre Sassoulas (@Pierre-Sassoulas) has been working on some code quality fixes using the pylint tool (and apart from these merged PRs working on setting up other code quality tools and a pre-commit checker).
@zoldalma999 (who recently joined the pygame team on github after contributing several high quality patches to pygame) worked on a proposal by David Lönnhager (@dlon) to add Color.update and Rect.update #2277
Vectors already have an update() method. Now Color, and Rect do too :)
>>> c = pygame.Color(0, 0, 0)
>>> c2 = pygame.Color(1, 2, 3, 4)
>>> c
(0, 0, 0, 255)
>>> c.update(c2)
>>> c
(1, 2, 3, 4)
>>> rect = pygame.Rect(0, 0, 1, 1)
>>> rect.update(1, 2, 3, 4)
>>> rect
<rect(1, 2, 3, 4)>
>>> rect = pygame.Rect(0, 0, 1, 1)
>>> rect2 = pygame.Rect(1, 2, 3, 4)
>>> rect.update(rect2)
>>> rect
<rect(1, 2, 3, 4)>
@zoldalma999 also worked on:
main branch. #2318René Dudfield (@illume) was hacking on some things like these:
libsdl is a library pygame is built on. It had a new release after almost 9 months of development. The 2.0.14 release notes detail things a little bit. More than 9 months worth of effort is a bit much to explain.
There's been a number of bugs fixed we reported in the pygame 2 series. One of which was pygame.display.update() updating the whole screen on windows. So, now 'dirty rect drawing' is faster again on windows. From the list you'll notice a lot of work went into joystick and game controller improvements. Including support for more than 4 xbox controllers at once on windows. But linux, android, mac, and even freebsd got joystick improvements. On linux the Kernel Mode Setting (KMSDRM) video driver was improved a lot. For retro computing fans, the OS2 port got a lot of love. Lots of portability things were improved, like fixing compilation for M1 CPUs, improving the build system. Raspberry Pi support has been improved, as have most video drivers for other platforms.
Victor Lopez started on an Xbox one port, and has had some success.
I can confirm Xbox One is able to run the aliens sample with joystick support, audio and sprites, it needs, however, heavy testing.
These are the relevant repositories:
pathlib is an object oriented way of doing path handling in python 3 (there's also a backport to python2). Before pygame didn't handle these objects in resource loading functions for image and sound loading. Now it does pathlib!
path = pathlib.Path('.') / "data" / "house_lo.wav"
sound1 = mixer.Sound(path)
Thanks to @ankith26 in #2366 and René Dudfield (@illume) in #2387 .
@Starbuck5 worked on a new Cursor object in https://github.com/pygame/pygame/pull/2331
Now you can add system cursors, and color cursors out of surfaces along with the other ones you could draw with ascii art.
box = pygame.cursors.Cursor((10,10), pygame.Surface((20,20)))
pg.mouse.set_cursor(box)
pg.mouse.set_cursor(pg.SYSTEM_CURSOR_NO)
pg.mouse.get_cursor()
>>> <Cursor(type: system, constant: SYSTEM_CURSOR_NO)>
@Starbuck5
@Starbuck5 added a deprecation warning for mouse.set_system_cursor() #2397 after a long discussion and research with a number of us on if we should have deprecation warnings anyway?.
Another project @Starbuck5 worked on was fixing some draw.rect issues in PR #2406 found by @gummbum and @dr0id
This script by @dr0id made it much easier to spot the problems.
@galexandreg worked on text_input documentation improvements on by default, needed for pygame.TEXTINPUT https://github.com/pygame/pygame/pull/2333
@robertpfeiffer made a few fixes to issues with android support. Added K_AC_BACK key constant, fixed data_file pruning and "STRIPPED" install #2311
Ankith @ankith26 merged these ones in (whilst also looking at some difficult event posting issues, and cleaning up some image loading code).
@mcpalmer1980 Added experimental relative mouse motion support to video.Window in #2392 They have also been using the experimental _sdl2 features quite a lot and coming up with some good improvements and discussions on that (including a new package!).
Dan Lawrence ( @MyreMylar ) was on a coding rampage and made a number of improvements:
See ya!

What's the best feature of pygame 2? Maybe it's "backwards compatibility". For many, many apps pygame 2 is backwards compatible. Have an pygame app from the year 2000? It will probably work. We still have some known issues and open backwards compatibility issues(see below), but a lot of things work just as they did before. Yes, we still have python 2 support.
How does one summarize the 3306 changes since we started the pygame 2 series in July of 2018 based on patches going back to 2012 and even earlier?
Surface.fill('black') instead of Surface.fill(pygame.Color(0, 0, 0)). Also keywords are supported for many more function arguments. You can draw rounded corners on rects.python3 -m pygame.examples.font_viewer, and python3 -m pygame.examples.music_drop_fade. Additionally the example source code has been cleaned up a lot to follow a more current python style.That was a summary of some of the goodies in pygame 2. We will be releasing more articles and tutorials on new features as time goes on. You can also look at the previous release notes for more info (see end of this post).
Probably one of the better realizations thinking about pygame on its 20th birthday is that there is a much larger group of people who have contributed to crafting pygame in recent years. Some have moved onto other things like jobs, family or writing cookbooks in the Canadian wilderness. Much respect for volunteering time to a community project like pygame.
Firstly thanks to the pygame team members who contributed to the pygame 2 series, new and old...

Very many people have contributed by reporting issues. This is fantastic help for people 👏 👏 👏 Without these issue reports and help in testing bugs and new features many parts simply wouldn't work. Thanks to the SDL folk, to the fluidsynth crew, to numpy devs (Matti and co), python for android, pypy project, and the python community at large. Thanks to the folks running game jams like ludumdare(Mike), pyweek(lordmauve), and alakajam. Thanks to renpytom for pygame subset for android and pygame_sdl2, thanks to Marcus von Appen for pysdl2. Thanks to people sharing your work with others on the pygame website, or on places like the pygame reddit, discord, or youtube. Thanks to the kind folk who work on packaging pygame from Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, FreeBSD, and piwheels (@bennuttall). Thanks for the people teaching and learning with pygame all over the world. Last but not least... a very special thanks to everyone we've missed that should be listed here.
Really. Thank you (you). Thanks.
We have an up to date list of issues marked with the Compatibility Python 2 label. These are compatibility issues where something worked in pygame 1, but doesn't work in pygame 2.

Several very difficult to find and fix issues with alpha blending were fixed in this release.
The new alpha blitter has an SSE2 and arm NEON implementation, and keeps compatibility with pygame 1.

This is a small bugfix release to fix a problem with installing pygame from source code.

pip install pygame==2.0.0.dev16
The 28<sup>th</sup> of October 2020 will be the pygame 2.0 release date, because pygame turns 20 years of age. Save the date (maybe we'll do something)!
We reached two important milestones with this pre-release. Firstly the old game 'solarwolf' is working fine with no known issues on pygame 2. The second stone we passed by on the road to PyPy goodness is that we are releasing binary wheels for PyPy on mac, windows, and linux. PyPy is a different implementation of python that is highly compatible and can be extremely fast.
Here's a little youtube video of solarwolf on PyPy and SDL2...
If you watched the video to the end, you'll note there's a crash. We still have some way to go before everything in pygame is working with PyPy. "solarwolf" using cpython and pygame 2 is running deliciously and glitch free.

-- <small>Players, only love you when they're playing</small>
With a very tiny little bit of discussion it was sort of decided that the 28<sup>th</sup> of October 2020 will be the pygame 2.0 release date, because pygame turns 20.
First up, some 'critical' improvements that have been made to pygame. 'critical' labeled issues are ones are backwards incompatible issues stopping a pygame 2 release.
Thanks to Dan Lawrence @MyreMylar for Adding a num_buttons parameter to mouse.get_pressed(). This was a backwards compatibility issue, because it used to return 3 elements. Now it returns 3 elements again by default and you can request 5 if you want. Another critical issue fixed by MyreMylar was a problem with key events being reordered on windows.
But wait... there's more. Another backwards compatibility fix by MyreMylar is the "Backwards compatibility for get_flags() in SDL2" PR, which has stopped some games handling full screen mode properly.
Sigurður Sveinn Halldórsson @siggisv fixed a problem with how pygame.draw.aaline didn't look as before.
Now the anti aliased lines look (and smell) awesome.

pip install pygame==2.0.0.dev12
Locked in or Locked out? That's not going to stop a new pygame coming out.
The main theme of this release is testing. With many new contributors having worked on unit tests, we can be much more confident that many more features will continue to work with our SDL2 based pygame 2 as in pygame 1 which is based on SDL1. But we also have a few new features, and plenty of bug fixes.
Thanks to everyone for their help with this release.
First up, some 'critical' improvements that have been made to pygame. 'critical' labeled issues are ones are backwards incompatible issues stopping a pygame 2 release.
We start with some joystick improvements from Daniel Pope @lordmauve. Add SDL2-specific methods to Joystick; rename event fields. Now joysticks(game pads, drum sets, dance mats) can be hot-plugged, and the game will still work properly.
@robertpfeiffer got posting of keydown events working on SDL2. This is part of the android work that has now been merged into the main branch - but it is also a backwards compatibility fix.
Thanks to Dan Lawrence @MyreMylar for fixing segfaults caused when interacting with display surface after quit, which is mainly useful for when writing unit tests or playing with pygame interactively.
Sometimes writing tests for existing functionality finds real issues and bugs. First @tsadama Added unit tests for display.toggle_fullscreen and display.get_active which uncovered an issue with SDL2. Then Dan Lawrence @MyreMylar Fixed get_active() function so it works as described in docs on windows under SDL2..
Here we see the amount of unit tests left to write to get full coverage of every pygame method. During this release period you can see a lot of things got new tests. During the testing it uncovered a number of real issues, and some of them were even fixed.
| pygame version | Methods left to test |
|---|---|
| 2.0.0.dev12 | 81 |
| 2.0.0.dev10 | 127 |
| 2.0.0.dev8 | 143 |
| 2.0.0.dev6 | 147 |
| 1.9.6 | 156 |
| 1.9.5 | 155 |
| 1.9.4 | 189 |
| 1.9.3 | 194 |
| 1.9.2 | 194 |
| 1.9.1 | 232 |
| 1.9.0 | 232 |
| 1.8.1 | 25 |
| 1.8.0 | 0 |
The count can be found with the following command run in the pygame code base:
grep todo test/*.py | wc -l
'goodfirstissue' is a label applied to issues which would be good for someone who wants to try contributing to a Free, Open Source, or community project (like pygame). A lot of these issues were written up containing unit tests that needed to be finished off.
Unfortunately we will probably run out of things to test in some months. We hope to prepare new types of 'good first issues', and educational material in other areas next. So that there is something else for people who are interested in contributing as a way to learn. Hopefully we can structure it as a learning pathway, with even some advanced topics.
Thanks to Andy Nguyen @anguye13, who worked on a number of tests in the display, image, and surface areas.
Adam Andrews @adamandrews1 worked on the transform, threads parts of the code base. They have also begun work on cleaning up the buffer code, which is in C and kind of complicated. But that work is still waiting, and will likely make it into the next release.

These will be useful to prepare homogenous coordinates for affine transforms by matrix multiplication. Here is a matrix representing a 2x scale + (3, -1) translation:
>>> import numpy as np
>>> from pygame.math import Vector2
>>> v = Vector2(0.5, 0.8)
>>> mat = np.array([
... [2, 0, 3],
... [0, 2, -1],
... ])
>>> mat @ v.xy1
array([4. , 0.6])
A special thanks to all the people who help out others. From making videos, to answering questions, to writing guides. MyreMylar, MichaelCPalmer, jtiai, claudeb, DaFluffyPotato, Rabbid76, The Big Kahuna, sloth, Kingsley, ... and lots of other people.
Special thanks to @Zireael07 for cheering on pull requests that people make 🎉
We are down to zero alerts on the LGTM linting tool on python and C/C++. We are now the largest python codebase with zero alerts on the LGTM platform (and also the largest C/C++ codebase with zero alerts). This doesn't mean we have perfect code yet however!
pylint is another python code quality tool we are using. With which we currently have thousands of reported issues left. Not only can this tool find correctness problems with the code, it can also offer ideas on how to make the code more readable and 'pythonic'. Once we have the files pylint-clean we can use pylint to take some of the load off the code reviewers.

Thanks to Travis CI, we now have a builder which can test our big endian code. Even though big endian is not very common these days, it's still helpful to support it because it helps shake out some bugs we wouldn't normally see just testing on little endian CPU architectures.
René Dudfield @illume s390x build robot on travis CI for big endian testing Michał Górny @mgorny Account for big endian support for RGB/BGR images Dan Lawrence @MyreMylar Remove hard coded RGB bitshifts that don't work with SDL_MapRGB()/SDL_MapRGBA()
Sigurður Sveinn Halldórsson @siggisv image.save(namehint='') and image.get_sdl_image_version useful for when saving images to file objects and you want to tell it what format to save in (jpg, png, etc).
>>> file = BytesIO()

Every single source file has been heavily modified and moved in this release. Initial (source code only) support for SDL2 has been merged in. We also support compiling with SDL1 in the same code base, so the migration to pygame 2 is easier. pygame 2 will be released with SDL2 being the default backend when some remaining issues are ironed out. The 1.9.x releases will continue with SDL1 until then. Also, the C API of pygame is undergoing a transformation with lots of cleanups. Then there have been plenty of other cleanups all throughout the python code as well. There's still lots to clean up, but things should be significantly easier for people to contribute (👋 hello and thanks new contributors!). The documentation has been improved with better examples links, search functionality, and improved navigation. Support for older Macs, and newer Macs has been improved. The mask, midi, draw, and math modules have gotten lots of polish with rough edges removed.
