How do you define kinda?
It doesn't look like it works to me.

The function main defined as

def main():
    high_file = open_file("high_score.txt", "r")
    score = next_block(high_file)
    global score
    high_file.close()

score is a local variable and has a value assigned
Then you use gloobal which will have no affect so far 
as I can tell.

Finally this function is being replaced by the 
second function main you defined.

You might like to try getting it to work by printing on a 
console first! Then worry about the GUI bits.

HTH,
