I think one reason why people are interested in python game engines is because there is so much job opportunities for python developers. Learning how to program by making games is an awesome way to learn a language and if you know python, you can find jobs for almost any industry.

Honestly, you can create almost anything in any programming language. I use both C++ and Python, and while C++ is faster, Python is much less stressful to work with. Choose the programming language that you enjoy working with and know the best

This is illegal, please stop the development and pick a purely compiled language, the PCG (Programmers Control Group) is already informed and will be taking appropriate steps.

I am technically a contributor to the Ursina engine, as I made some of the more main documentation for a lot of the classes (which the maintainer didn't want to add, and I had to fight to add in basic documentation)

TF2 remake in Panda3D is a proof that you can make a game with any level of detail and quality in Python, because the core of those engines are written in C++. I'm also working on a TPS game in Python and Panda3D.

Been looking into coding with python for basic games, as I already know how to code with it & cannot be assed to learn a whole new language, thank you for posting this video, very informative

I just wrote the core logic for "Rock, Paper, Scissors" in Python so I can reuse it in my main game, and now I get this video recommended. Coincidence? I think not!

Very interesting vid, the editing is great and the way that you cover the topic is great. Very good vid.

Really good video! Whenever anyone talks about pygame's speed I always imagine dafluffypotato coming back with the 'uhh, actually...' lmao

For any category X, you'll always hear, 'Python is terrible for X.' Yet, you’ll find projects where Python performs X better than you ever imagined. People undermine it because they don't get its philosophy: simple is better than complex. That's why, despite the apparent hate, it's actually a reflection of its success. If performance is an issue, just write the boilerplate and hard logic in C, compile it to a nice .pyd, and get back to your work. Simple, right? p.s:Amazing video, very detailed! got confused with the difference in content with the rest of your videos lol

Python is a very useful language and its philosophy for keeping simplicity (simple doesn't mean easy, you still need to put in effort with rather complex systems) makes it a great scripting and prototyping tool. I believe that it's a great tool for learning rudimentary game logic programming, game design with coding and project organization. There's a great channel called Coder Space which is worth shouting out, there's a lot of great in-depth "walkthroughs", like creating ray-casting engines like in Wolfenstein 3D and Doom using Pygame. I believe that anyone putting an effort in making a simple shooter in Python will have a much easier time migrating to "proper" game engines later on. Maybe even designing their own engine in a lower level language.

no way you're this underrated, great video 👍

Man , you told everything I think python is fantastic , however , lacks something in gaming , i hope soon may be came some kind of ( update , or another app that can make possible write a full game with greatest graphics all only with python . but for now , Thank you very much , for provide such useful information and video. Many thanks ...

Very good video and helpful for people who like to learn more about game development.

I just checked and SFML also exists in python, maybe you could have spoken about it, really great video nonetheless :)

Adding to the list of those you mentioned in the video, there's also Raylib in which there's a language binding for pretty much everything, including python

Yoo that game is fire💀

3:33 Panda3d isn't really outdated. It's continued to receive updates throughout the years, and then you can also link to other libraries (whether they were designed around panda3d or not) to increase it's functionallity. I.E. bullet physics and complexPBR. It's just that it might look primitive because it's more up to the user to make something look nice. As a metaphor: On a sliding scale from Raw ingredients to Microwave dinner, Panda3d is closer to raw ingredients while engines like unity are closer to the middle. While it's more up to the user's skill to create something amazing, it's far easier to create exactly what you have in mind, while with unity, it takes more effort to create something substantially different. (I.E. super weird non-Euclidean graphics.)

I was thinking this was made by a well know youtuber but no keep it up i love this❤

I'm a big fan of making things as optimized as possible. I'm a bigger fan of pushing the limits and seeing what can be done.

Hello from a dev of the game at 6:45

Damn, no respect for Blender Game Engine, or its community-made fork, UPBGE (Uchronia Project) I'm actually developing my own FPS meant to have an easy to play, hard to master build like Ultrakill and TF2, inspired by Pizza Tower mostly. BGE/UPBGE uses Python for its logic and scripting, while the rendering engine uses OpenGL and C#, I think. It's been fun to make my own systems in Python and I hope to make a game that shows that you CAN make a dynamic, fast-paced FPS game using Python for scripting! Awesome video, keep up the good work :)

love that youtube thinks this is a minecarft video

great video ! python/panda3D is what i started out trying to learn before moving onto other weird languages/engines ♥ still hoping/waiting for a darkbasic (pro) video :)

2:38 LoL, thats my game =)

Very cool, thanks for featuring me :)

Games in python (in my opinion) are at max a Doom copy and at minimum any 2d (topdown or some other type) game, otherwise it will have less performance then other languages

Wow that TF2 clone looks incredible.

Hi great vid. Very helpful! ❤

an alternative would've been UPBGE but that mostly focuses more on visual scripting than actuall python. but its still powerfull since in runs in blender

ULTRAKILL 🤤

The reason Python is not mainly used for making Games, is the same reason Autohotkey is not being used for the same purpose. The reason is simple, No game engine so far has been made to be user friendly. Unity is very and i mean "very" user friendly. Neither Python nor Autohotkey or i guess Lua/Rust have any sort of game engines pre-built that you can use- to have an easier time making a game. - Also, even if there is a simple game engine, it's often made towards the developer of said "game engine", and not the community, again making it not user friendly. But all these languages are very capable, it's just that the community said, C# and C or C+ or C++ is the way to go. Similar situation to AV1 vs JPEG lossless and JPEG XL. where both have a purpose, but community liked AV1 more even if JPEG lossless is not bad, and often better than AV1 in encoding an assortment of images.

"making fps games in python" Ram: Please don't

I’m a fan of Python and so is John Carmack. These days I’d rather crack out a fun game with less code in less time, with some performance penalty, than use something lower level like c++. And I’ve been making console games in C/C++ for decades. I don’t think I would use either of these 2 engines; I would write my own bindings over a base engine in C++ and do all the high-level logic in Python. Or just use Godot; it’s near enough to Python for me.

8:09 of course you can run DOOM on python

after i learned c and c++ i started talking thing like python, and javascript are slow html isn't real programming language. so yeah LOL, then back to python and it isn't bad.. my FPS in PYGAME!

Ogre3d with python was king

apparently assetto corsa's apps (customisable ui elements) are made in python

im making a game engine that uses python (for now at leasst) on the user side, my main goal is so people can learn python while having fun

"the reason python isn't used for game design is performance" has always made me wonder why people use python for machine learning considering how they require performance.

In my understanding Python and C are both extremely slow for games by modern standards since they run on the CPU. If you want to be writing a fast game I suspect you'll need to talk to the GPU at some point with a dedicated language such as GLSL, HLSL or whatever. Just like how if you want to use a relational database, you will probably either be writing in SQL or using an ORM that does the SQL for you, at which point the Python vs C++ is a bit of a false dilemma. If you will be doing a lot of CPU heavy computation you might want to perhaps do it in C or use something like numpy which is python bindings for a c library. Then there's the whole jit vs interpreted problem. However python is memory safe, and that's not something to be underestimated. I believe the benefits of using Godot is that you also get a scene editor and various other out of the box tooling and a bunch of ready to use opinionated engines you can tune and use for your project, so it really depends what you need in the end.

Yes, game written in python can infact achieve a single FPS.

I use python notepad is that good

"Making an operating system in excel" Seriously, python developers are ready to use this language EVERYWHERE it should never be used, this new generation of "developers" is going to be something else ...

title is a bit "clickbaity", but I knew a fps in python just wasn't mostly possible good video anyway

Bro I know that first game was ultra kill but what is that second game, like ultra kill with reshade? No seriously what was that second game calleed

Next up: remastering the gta5 in python(like 5 yrs old)

Not only performance but C++ forces you to write better software

NO NO NO NO WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT

what game you are playing in the background?

thanks for the summary. Do you know how easy/is capable to deploy for Android?

You could always just do performant things in c/c++ and everything else in python

is that what's under spy's mask??

why?

Battlefield 2 was made in Python

Isn't Ursina just a wrapper around Panda3d?

I don't see the point about python game dev makes you learn programming more that using Godot, python game engines are so abstracted that they are akin to Godot without a GUI interface, In Godot you're still gonna mess with code though GDscript(Vars,Loops,math,getters,setter) plus better OOP and static typing.

Ah... Python, a Joker with C++ mask. I have to pay my respect for them, (Press F). Truly master of disguise... and ignorant XD

bro this is not FPS , this is top down shooter game lol

whats the game in the 2nd clip?

ultrakill was made with unity

What the name of a game on 2:19?

what game is that in the background

1:15 bro didn't realize godots language is a variation of python

❤❤

whats that game called at 0:42

slab marksman detected.

whats the game at 5:48?

Glatopt?

use ursina srsly dont lsiten to other stuff jsut use ursina

why does the script feels ai generated as hell

What game is that in the bg

What was the first game he showed?

technically python is C framework..

Ok, so Python is slower than other Languages when it comes to 3D gaming. But how much slower is it? Lets say we make a game like Quake 3. Its a small arena shooter. If we get 200 FPS with Quake 3 C# or C++. Then how much FPS would we get with Python? 120FPS? The generalizing sentence of "its slower" doesn't really help. I looked this up and i found no actual comparing 3D Perfromance Data what so ever. I even asked Chat A.I. :P If we talk about ~25% less performance, then this is still not that big of a deal. Depending on the game you are making. If you are super efficient and trained in Python "only". You can realease the game/product sooner and make some profit, instead of switching to a different language you know nothing about. If you wan't to make the next Metroid Dread 2.5D sidescroller. Pyhton might be enough. If you want to make the next Crysis in terms of graphics, well, you better start asking the question "can it run Pysis".... because your ~25% less performance just bottlenecked your entire endeavor. But we don't really know that, do we? Because we have no actual 3D Game comparison Data? No one took the same assets and made the exact same game/benchmark in Python and in another language to compare. Python is used for A.I. stuff. Would be interesting to know, if that could be used to make Python written games run faster.

I don't know that joke or what but bro really thinks that gdscript is python 💀💀💀

Basically you are say, use a game engine, or learn c++. Lmao. C++ is not that hard, .... It only takes a year to know most of the basics. And another year to know graphics.

Please dont pin me
