Ok, will add these to my list, but current focus is on getting this version up and running on the N900 without too many changes, ie. as true to the original as possible.
As far as I can see right now is that the only thing that does not work right is the end of game screen, ie. it jumps straight to the player selection screen, which is a user input queue issue and I should have that fixed soon.
Will post the latest version with fix details in a separate post.

There is no sound.
It seems that the values have to be bigger than in the original game.
Can you do me a favour and change the frame rate back to 30 fps in the first few lines of the gorilla.py file and report whether that makes a difference. I am guessing this will not make a difference and the timing values in the program may have to be some parametric variable based on the frequency of the N900. This may be an issue with pygame, anyway, I am happy to look into it.
Sound:
Yes, sound was definitely not included in the original python source I used. Will appreciate some help with the original sound files and will be happy to include sound effects in an update.

Side note: If you package it make sure you add python-pygame as a dependency.

Attached latest version update for today. As per usual the zip contains the desktop file (don't forget to change the gorilla.py file location to match your actual location) and icon from post #21 and most of the suggestions for improvements from post #23 (ie. buildings lowered, visual elements centred, tap on first screen to move to player selection screen) and moved score display below buildings.
Enjoy
Enjoy

And if you mean the original gorilla.py, then I sure hope not. Despite the code being written to teach python, it isn't very good. It is hard to follow and figure out how to make significant changes (like my adding of the task switch button). I'll still try to hunt around without a complete rewrite

I've managed to diff your two posts and apply those changes (where I didn't already apply it) to the game and prepping a package now.

Latest version for today attached below.
Changes include:
1) Screen tap works same as enter key
2) Pure number input now does not require use of alt key (ie. pressing q gives 1, w gives 2, etc.), so on the main game screen no more two finger input required! Input using alphanumerics as well as numbers still works the same as usual (ie. Player names input).
3) End of game screen works now.
As far as I am concerned, mission complete! Now the game runs fully on the N900 using N900 screen and keyboard for input.
@epage: tried to get to the source as described by your posts, but couldn't find it, even though I now have a user log in, so I will keep posting my stuff here.

I'm prepping up a package for your latest version.
To get my modified version just go to the following page and click "raw", no account needed
https://github.com/epage/gorilla/blo...illa_pygame.py
I'm requesting Gorilla to be added to b.m.o. Do you have an account on bugs.maemo.org? Would you want to be listed as having rights to modify bugs?
