;Brief explanation: [http://platipy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ "Spyral"] is a Pygame replacement designed to make the process of developing pygame games for the XO laptop a lot easier. It's part of the Platipy project, that documents the process and Spyral. Spyral is still being actively developed, but is already mature enough for game development.

;Expected results: ~~Improved~~ collision handling, audio API, hex-grid support.

;Expected results: There are a number of features that we want to add to Spyral: improved collision handling, an audio API (even just exposing Pygames), hex-grid support, window/mac application freezing, more Widgets and Form functionality. We also wish to extend more of the documentation on how to create educational games; tutorials on our advanced features like layering, styles, the event handler, etc.

;Knowledge prerequisite: Strong background in Python, prefered experience with Pygame.
