Plugin Engine?

Start a project, pick your plugins, and create your game. Or at least, thats how it's going to work - we're still in the early alpha stages, so stick around!

Core

The allfathers' domain. jac and bonzairob maintain and update the Core, encompassing all.

3dPƐ is written in Python, using WX, Pygame, OpenGL and other libraries.

Plugins

Plugins add states to the core - like overworlds and battle systems. Perhaps you want a 2D MMO, or maybe 2D sprites in a 3D world? Turn-based or realtime battles? Pick the right plugins for your project to make it happen.

Are you a python dev who wants to make something interesting? Come make plugins with us!

The Core

The Core is the prism through which your plugins and games shine.

For plugin developers, the Core provides standardised access to system info, Pygame, WX and OpenGL, along with image manipulation, audio playback, git-friendly data storage for game project versioning, and a load of useful utilities and classes.

The end result is that you run the Core, which loads the Game, which decides what Plugins to load and run. Plugin engine!

The breadth of the Core's functions will be expanded in the future, to act as a hub for game developers, as well as compiling into the lightweight wrapper for finished games.
