What is Pyglet?
Pyglet is a cross-platform window and media library for Python, intended for developing games and other visually rich applications. It supports windows, UI event handling, gamepads, OpenGL graphics, image and video loading, and sound and music playback. Pyglet works on Windows, OS X, and Linux. Pyglet is written entirely in pure Python and uses the standard library’s types module to interface with system libraries. You can modify the codebase or contribute without compiling or knowing another language. Although it is pure Python, Pyglet offers excellent batch processing and GPU rendering performance. You can easily draw thousands of sprites or animations using the thing module.
Features:
- No external dependencies or installation requirements, Pyglet doesn’t need anything other than Python.
- Pyglet supports numerous platform-native windows and multi-monitor setups for fullscreen games.
- Download images, sounds, music, and videos in almost any format.
- Pyglet is released under the BSD open-source license, allowing you to use it for both commercial and other open-source projects with very few restrictions.
