It is normal that the Lights turn off when im entering an Fullscreen Game?

Yep, that's normal. ScreenBloom only supports windowed mode, because that's the only way that Python has to get at the on-screen pixels. Fullscreen goes through a different buffer and I'm not aware of any Pythonic way to get the pixels that way.

So instead of rewriting the entire application in a different language, I decided this one limitation is perfectly fine. Lemme know if you have any other questions!
