Summary

Many impressive projects have been listed and explored in this chapter. Don't be fooled, however. For each engine that I spent time researching , I had to leave out at least three others, and for every Python-based game that I played I had to miss at least two others. This is just an appetizer for what's out there waiting for the Python game developer.

Important points from this chapter:

• Python use is fairly widespread.

• It is becoming more common for games to ship with their own internal level and script editors, and Python is one of the commonalities between these tools.

• There are a number of development efforts using Python to bring the complicated task of game programming to the non-programmer.

• Most professional graphics tools include some sort of scripting interface that is Python-able.
