Games

• Bricks Knock Off Knock the bricks off the platform to win (pybox2d 2.1)
• Nein is a 2D physics sandbox based around animal cruelty. Specifically, animal cruelty towards a cat.
• pybotwar is a fun and educational game where players create computer programs to control simulated robots to compete in a battle arena
• Torqueball is a cool single player platform/puzzle game with a level editor (help the author make levels)
• The Bird-eating Macaque by cap (LD page)
• Junktowers by Papper, his submission to the 48 hour solo game development competition Ludum Dare
• NaN's "The day mom tied us together", fun and innovative little side scroller (with a cool intro) (PyWeek page)
• tPhysics, a Multi-Touch Physics Sandbox. Video demo looks like fun! (should use b2PolygonDef.checkValues() to fix the polygon problems)
• Mazes by benjamin.debski, a conversion of his old hand-drawn paper mazes into a game

Up and Coming

Some WIP projects to keep an eye on:

• gerasene "For we are many - an AI tactics game for programmers"
• boxfight-python Control a box which would fight against other box ala bumper car. Until you win.
• Vizi "An aspiring digital-audio-workstation implemented in an unconventional manner" (note)
• elemel's games: Nucleus (fast-paced puzzle game), Cannonball, Void (retro space shooter), Mortified (2D platform RPG)
• adastra, by ddunwoody
• Quadropus, a puzzle-platformer where the player must balance the use of four tentacles to solve a variety of environmental puzzles
• littlepyballgame It's a little Python ball game...
