Screen just appears black.
I've checked if the self.screen is working, and it does. Can't find a reason for why the ship is not showing up.

Rocket file: I've checked the .bmp file for the rocket, and it's working fine.
Also checked that background is appearing before the ship and after the screen flip.

Your Rocket object is not drawn above the bottom of the screen but just below it. The rocket is not visible because it is outside the screen. Change

self.rect.midbottom = self.screen_rect.midbottom
