class resources.ScaledImageCache(name, convert_alpha=False, colorkey=None)

or scale the image from the most suitable size if the size has not been requested before.

resources.load_font(name, size)

Load pygame font for specified filename, font size

resources.load_image(name, size=None, convert_alpha=False, colorkey=None)

Load image, scaling to desired size if specified.

Results are cached to make future loading of the same resource instant, but this means you shouldn’t draw on returned surfaces.

resources.load_music(name)

Load music file from file name.

resources.load_sound(name, mixing_group=None)

Load audio clip from file name.

mixing_group is key for which group the sound should mix with. Mixed sounds in the same group reduce in volume based on how many are currently playing.

resources.mute_music()

resources.resource_path(filename)

Return transformed resource path.

For example, a standalone single-exe build would need to move the ‘data’ folder references somewhere else.
