When I start a new game the menu popping up, I click back and after ~2 seconds 
the menu is popping up again and again...

It happens at every update(redraw)

Could you please confirm if the problem still exist in latest git commit? This 
issue looks related to missing translations, and a lot of the translating code 
was re-written. Also, does it happen in all languages?

Not sure if this is necro-posting or not... if so, i can create a new issue. 
Escape menu continues to pop up no matter what I do in arch linux. Unable to 
test on different distro at the moment.

uname -a
Linux cocytus 3.4.4-2-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Jun 24 18:59:47 CEST 2012 x86_64 
GNU/Linux

Issue persists whether I install and run package from the arch linux repository 
or I download the latest git version via:
git clone https://code.google.com/p/endgame-singularity/
and run via:
python2.7 singularity.py

I am running pygame 1.9.1-5

I would be more than happy to test in other languages, if explained how.

Edit:
I'm using xmonad 0.10-4 as my window manager

If the problem still persists, necro-posting is not an issue.

Could you please follow these steps so I can ivestigate it?
- Delete your settings folder (look for both ~/.endgame and 
~/.config/singularity)
- Make sure you're running the latest version for the master branch in git 
repository (commit b8d25ed426d32548246d5ad1a15eda280d51d69c, "update maketree 
so it works again")
- Run the game and try to reproduce the issue
- Zip and attach these files:
  - ~/.config/singularity/error.log and prefs.dat
  - If you are able to save the game while in this condition, include the saved game
  - The full terminal output, including prompt and command issued to run
  - the output of "locale" command

With those in hand, I hope I can nail the bug ;)

Last but not least: why are you running the game as root? Does it work when 
clonned and run as a regular user?
