 .
 Pygame (http://www.pygame.org/) is a set of Python modules designed for writing games. It is written on top of the excellent SDL library. This allows you to create fully featured games and multimedia programs in the python language. It is the most popular, and portable game library for python, with over 1000 free and open source projects that use pygame to look at.

 The free books [[http://programarcadegames.com/|"Program Arcade Games with Python and Pygame"]],
 [[http://inventwithpython.com/pygame|"Making Games with Python & Pygame"]]
 cover the basics of the Pygame library and offers the source code for several popular video game clones.



http://inventwithpython.com/pyganim


 .
 ''Pyganim'' is a simple module for handling sprite animation. The [[http://inventwithpython.com/pyganim/tutorial.html|tutorial]] covers how to use the module, and the site also provides a few demo programs.



http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/greg.ewing/python/Albow/


 .
 ''Albow'' (A Little Bit of Widgetry) is a graphical user interface toolkit for use in [[PyGame|PyGame]]-based games. Widgets include labels, buttons (text or image), check boxes, radio buttons, text fields, palettes, tables and file load/save dialogs. Layout facilities include rows, columns and grids. A theme system allows fonts and colours to be customised easily. Also provides some facilities for locating and managing resources and playing and controlling music. Can be used in conjunction with OpenGL to incorporate 2D widgets into a 3D game.

 Also available from the same site is ''Humerus'', a game skeleton based on Albow. Humerus provides a framework for managing and loading levels, starting and resuming play, saving and restoring game state, and implementing an in-game level editor. A customisable main menu screen ties all these activities together.



http://ocemp.sourceforge.net/gui.html


 . OcempGUI is an abbreviation for Ocean Empire GUI. and denotes a toolkit, which contains a set of various user interface elements based on and for pygame.


http://www.imitationpickles.org/pgu/


 . pgu includes several scripts and libraries. The scripts are a tile editor and a level editor. The libraries include a state engine, a full featured gui, document layout, html rendering, text rendering, sprite and tile engine, and a timer.


http://aharrisbooks.net/pythonGame/


 .
 Game Engine is a high-level wrapper on Pygame that greatly simplifies game development in Python / Pygame. It is described completely in the book "Game Programming - the L Line" but it is available for free even if you do not purchase the book. (Look for appendix B on the website to download [[GameEngine|GameEngine]] and the documentation)



== Pyglet / related ==


http://www.pyglet.org/


 . pyglet is a cross-platform windowing and multimedia library for Python.
 pyglet provides an object-oriented programming interface for developing games and other visually-rich applications for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux using for rendering '''OpenGL'''. Some of the features of pyglet are:

  . For most application and game requirements, pyglet needs nothing else besides Python, simplifying distribution and installation. Requires ctypes, and Opengl. Uses PIL, and AVBin for most format loading. Take advantage of multiple windows and multi-monitor desktops. pyglet allows you to use as many windows as you need, and is fully aware of multi-monitor setups for use with fullscreen games. Load images, sound, music and video in almost any format. pyglet can optionally use AVbin to play back audio formats such as MP3, OGG/Vorbis and WMA, and video formats such as DivX, MPEG-2, H.264, WMV and Xvid.


http://arcade.academy

 . Arcade is an easy-to-learn Python library for creating 2D video games. It is
 ideal for people learning to program, or developers that want to code a 2D game
 without learning a complex framework. It is built on top of Pyglet and OpenGL.


http://cocos2d.org/


 . cocos2d is a framework for building 2D games, demos, and other graphical/interactive applications. It is based on pyglet, and written in pure python, so it is cross-platform (but requires a decent/fast OpenGL platform). It provides scene flow control, sprites and actions, special effects and transitions.


https://github.com/tartley/gloopy

 . Gloopy is a simple OpenGL render loop, in pure Python, based on pyglet. It also uses PyOpenGL bindings. It is at an early stage of development and is hardly documented, although there are a couple of example demo scripts. It provides utility functions and classes for populating a 3D world with items which are rendered as VBOs. There are utilities for moving a camera around in the world, and also facilities to programmatically create and manipulate simple polyhedra, and then convert the resulting shapes into VBOs for rendering.
