Don't work on openSuse or Ubuntu :/
I have already used Pygame in the past and this is a good choice for Unix gamers but as you said, very difficult to produce an exe file for Windows :/
Foon → Ludum Dare Explorer → LD32 → Untilted

Hey,
I built your game into an executable for Win32. I did have to add import pygame._view to the top of your main file to get the executable freezer to work but otherwise went off without a hitch. Oh also you didn't include FreeSansBold.ttf in your distribution, so I added that. The zip file is here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/59i2vd6evz8fdrj/untilted-win32.zip?dl=0
If you want to download it and put it up as a Windows version of your game, go ahead.
One other thing... I get a crash every time I try to quit, I think because you are calling a function quit() which doesn't appear to exist anywhere. I usually call sys.exit() right after pygame.exit() to close the window. It may be that it crashes for me because quit() is undefined on windows vs. Linux/Unix, but I think if you use sys.exit() it will always quit in the correct way for whichever platform its running on.
Hopefully with a Windows version up too you can get some more ratings going on this entry.
Worked great for me on Ubuntu. I like the music, it's catchy. The art's not bad too. Gameplay is pretty simple, though. I tried looking at your code to figure out why it's flashing like that. That main game loop is... something else haha. But that's to be expected during Ludum Dare. :)
Interesting....and nice music.
