Hi guys i have 3 question for the pygame pong game I made:
1. I keep getting an error when i run this that has to do iwth the wx window
I made for the user to enter a speed. this is the error code:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/armin/Documents/School/Programming/Pong/Pong Test.py", line 26, in <module>
    frame = MenuBar(parent=None,id=-1)
  File "/home/armin/Documents/School/Programming/Pong/Pong Test.py", line 22, in __init__
    speed=SpeedBox.Value()
TypeError: 'unicode' object is not callable

2. Second question is is it possible to make a menu bar in a pygame window like you can make in a wxpython window? I looked it it up and found something about a PGU but couldn't find any examples or tutorials about how to actually do it.

3. What else can I do to improve my game? what can I add? Also I wanted to make a menu screen, do i have to do this in wxpython or can i do it in the pygame screen?


You will need a sound file called "pong.wav" and "score.wav" to run this code.

Thank you for your time guys
