That alone won't help. First of all, the alpha only is applied to the contents of the pygame window - so you need to capture the background behind that first and put it in the window as background. But if that background changes, you won't be notified. But that still won't rid you of the window decorations... I guess one could do that with OS-specific calls to window-handles or the like (and in PyObjc its a no-brainer, as the Mac windowing-system supports that natively) But in pygame, there is no API for that.
