Is using pygame vaiable for participating in game jams?

I participated in the JMTK game jam using pygame since I have used it for quite a long time now, but the issue i ran into is that I spent half the time I had just coding the rendering engine that can render Tiled maps and allow collisions with obstacles. I ended up not finishing it (I also had school so I could not spend all my time on it)

Does anyone have any advice for how to spend more time on actual game development and less time on building the base systems which you would get by default in a game engine like Godot or Gamemaker. Or is using pygame for a game jam a lost cause?

Hello I am considering switching from Ubuntu to Endeavour. While installing it on a vm I noticed in the guide they mention you should not leave updates much longer than weekly updating.

What do you do if you let's say go away on holiday for a month without your computer. Is that going to be a big problem?

Thanks in advance.

I use Ubunutu 26.04 LTS with KDE plasma installed and I have a android phone.

When connecting my phone with USB I can access the phones file system with Dolphin, but if I copy the path Dolphin uses and put it in the terminal it says the path does not exists.

I use the command go-mtpfs [mount_point] but it only works some of the times. Most times it mounts but there are no files in the mount point.

Is there a better/more reliable way to mount a phone that it is accessable through the terminal/other apps?
