I'm looking for a framework to support a 2D online real-time
multiplayer game (rugby league football with a lo-fi pixel look). The
GameProgramming page at the Python wiki had some suggestions but so
far nothing looks that promising, does anyone have some
recommendations ?
It would be ideal to play this through a web browser but I don't know
if that's practical.
This aspect of programming is pretty new to me so I'm not sure if I
should start with something general like Twisted or if there's a
different path I should take.
thanks, George 3 3514

There is Allegro, a (very good and easy to use) game development library which
has some python bindings (afaik it is not finished but usable): http://pyallegro.sourceforge.net/
(the allegro website is here: http://alleg.sourceforge.net/ )
or SDL, another good one with the same purpose: http://www.libsdl.org/ http://www.pygame.org/news.html
both are (imho) very good and easy to learn, but they are C libraries so some
knowledge of this language might help you to understand them.

Pyglet is my favorite: http://www.pyglet.org/
Twisted might be fine for the "online multiplayer" parts, but really if
you want a 2D/3D real-time game, start with a game framework.

Thanks Cédric and Gary for the suggestions, I'm familiar with all of
those. So a good workflow for a graphical online game is to make the
game first and just plan for the incoming connections without knowing
how they will be done exactly? My only experience with networked games
is muds, where usually you do the opposite -- sockets first. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

Hi,
I am developing a simple multiplayer game in VS 2005 using C#.
Each player would have an individual copy of the game running, which
would connect to a server. The app running on the server would
continuously listen on a specific port for the players and when the two
players are connected, the server would transmit information from one
player to the other.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
