My pygame window flickers
This is going to be a long one:
Yesterday I started a new pygame project. I have not used pygame for over a year. I was writing the basics of a new project I was going to work on (clock, screen, main loop). When I ran my program for the first time the window started flickering (see video below). Then I tested all my old projects and the same thing was happening. The window becomes unresponsive after trying to close it.
What I am running:
- windows 11
- vs code (idle shown in video)
Things I have tried:
- Trying pygame on python version 3.10 and 3.11
- reinstalling pygame
- updating pygame
- trying the same script on a different machine (it worked on their machine)
- restarting my computer
- running the program in idle
Things I have observed:
- The flickering happens faster when I don't have a clock in my script
- The speed of the flickering seems to differ from run to run
- The error only happens on my machine
