Why use Pygame instead of a Game Engine? Gamedev Python

[@mega-nerd]

I agree a framework is definitely the way. For me it is has been a lot of fun learning new patterns over the years. I find it a bit more enjoyable building things in Pyglet but its all pretty similar which is really nice. Even back in the day with Rabbyt on top of these frameworks was quite similar! If you can already use Pygame you can pick up Pyglet and vise-versa without much of any learning curve. I've even refactored projects directly between these frameworks without much trouble.

The best part of my partners name entry level. For unreal engine you literally have to possess what could be unreasonable specs for someone with a budget computer. The day I found pygame is the day game dev aspirations really had a chance grow. My computer was so bad I could not run Unreal, unity, or godot… It was really sad because I wanted to learn to code video games but there was no way for me to do it in till I found pygame ❤

Very interesting indeed. I'm running an opensource game project by using pygame-ce

[@Wardini2010]

pygame also runs on Raspberry Pi

[@Cinarbayramic]

can pygame even render models though

[@FinFET]

pygame has no support for 3D models, it is focused on 2D sprites, for 3D you could combine it with some opengl or vulkan library

How can you make pygame run on Android. Ive never heard of anyone doing that?

I made a tutorial a while back kzbin.info/www/bejne/gme7gKSXoL-Cm6M

@@LeoOno nao li mas achei interessante, acho que tem no internet archive, vou dar uma olhada! acho que vc só consegue colocar links do youtube ou só no proprio canal

Godot... just sucks for me... as for Python, it just rules... one of the best...

[@FinFET]

I've tried a bit of Godot, was pretty cool, specially with gdscript, but I still prefer Pygame 😉

[@SkyFly19853]

@@FinFET in Godot, the developer has to rely on Godot itself... in Python, the developer does not to rely on a single Engine.. 😏☑️
