Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Ask HN: Those making $0/month or less on side projects – Show and tell
I work on a Python game engine called Arcade[1] and other projects within it's Github organization such as pytiled-parser. We also help to drive continued development and improvement within Pyglet[2]. Recently, my efforts have been focused on creating a version which can be run in web browsers by using Pyodide and WebGL[3], though that is still fairly early stages.
Arcade's primary focus is on being an educational tool for beginner programmers, so my hope is that with browser compatibility we can lower the barrier to entry further and make it more accessible and easy to get started with. In a similar vein to the goals of browser compatibility, we've recently enabled full compatibility with Raspberry Pi through the use of OpenGL ES(and this was largely only possible thanks to the huge amount of work that everyone involved in the Mesa project puts in)
I'm not the original author of Arcade, but I am a current maintainer and put a substantial amount of time into it and it's community.

Where do I start programing evolution simulators?
In addition to Pygame, Arcade could be interesting as well as it is very well documented and quite powerful, see this game of life example.

An app with hand-picked, searchable and sortable awesome Python libraries (with full code and data)
For game engines, you list Pygame, which is great. Other great game libraries are Pyglet and Arcade (full website).

The first simulation I've made entirely from scratch (and also pygame): a basic QuadLife simulation with a completely randomized seed.
If you want more game engine stuff, try [Arcade](https://arcade.academy). It is built on top of pyglet for windowing, but the sprite stuff is all different. Faster than Pygame and has more features.

p5, pygame, or something else to make a simple 2d block game?
You might consider using Python and the Arcade library - https://arcade.academy/

Hey there,im a 16 year old boy here trying to make friends with someone who is getting into python or already has basic understanding about it. The reason behind this is so I can learn more and also teach them if they do not understand certain stuff.
Take a look at https://arcade.academy for game ideas is that's your cup of tea.

Are there any game engines for Python?
Arcade - not an engine, but rather a framework in the same sense that pygame is. In my opinion, it's much easier to use than pygame

Name it Better (ideas for making more informative names)
Here's an example file tree from a part of the Godot game engine source code.

Ask HN: Yo wants to build a game, I'm lost. What can I do?
Godot [1] is a very nice game engine. There's a game on Itch.io that teaches the scripting language it uses [2], and a ton of great tutorials on YouTube for beginners and experts alike.

Show HN: GodotOS: A Fake Operating System Interface Made in the Godot Engine
There is some ongoing PR, so it might come at some point :

Show HN: Mutable.ai – Turn your codebase into a Wiki
The Bitcoin and Mastadon links don't seem to be working! (wiki not found)
Would love to see this for Godot (https://github.com/godotengine/godot). Maybe Maplibre too (https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-native)!

My thought on different engines
Godot Engine is a free and open-source game engine. The story started as an in-house engine of an Argentinian studio in 2007, and since 2014, it's been a community-driven project with a lot of contributors.

I want to learn some low level typed language, should I learn Go or Rust?
Fair enough! I’d personally recommend Godot, because it’s FOSS, has a really nice way of doing things (in my opinion), and a language that’s similar enough to Go that when I was first learning Go I’d frequently use terms from GDScript! It’s the kind of think you can learn in a few hours. Give it a shot if you’re just getting into dev!

Can we make games using react native? Im new to this and I just made some to do, and video player apps. So I'm just curious so I can make iOS and playstore apps.
I believe most game developers would rather focus on making the game though, instead of figuring out how to make things work in React Native. In those cases, the best option is to just stick with game engines like Godot.
