    A retro game engine for Python

  • Longer answer: it depends. There are specialty frameworks in python that are really good for messing around with games. For instance the existence of pyxel is delightful. But is it going to be a track to releasing an indie game that can get you paid? Probably not. But if you can think of a game that you want to execute in python or using particular python libraries then absolutely do so if you're productive in python.
