PyGameEngine is a custom game engine built in Python, focusing on modularity, reusability, and clean architectural design. And I want to suffer in PyGame... It provides a structured foundation for developing 2D games while keeping core engine logic separate from gameplay rules.
This repository also serves as a long-term reference for game engine design decisions and performance considerations in Python.
- Modular Architecture – Engine components are easy to extend and reuse, such as Animation, Camera, Light, Physic and UI
- Core Game Mechanics – Physics, event handling, and motor functions
- Structured Gameplay Logic – Clear separation between engine and game logic
- Built with PyGame – Uses PyGame for rendering, input, and timing
