pyglet

Suppose you have two images: step1.png and step2.png .

Can anyone show me a very simple example in pyglet how to loop through those 2 images say every 0.5 seconds?

The character doesn't have to move, just a simple black screen with a fixed region wherein the two images continually change every 0.5 secs.

I know how to make a character move, shoot projectiles etc. but I just can't figure out how to control the looping speed of the images.
