This is one more addition to the collection of games that ive' written along with my friends. This game was developed for Pyweek1 a python game designing contest where the competetors have to design a game in one week, using the python's libraries.
My team called gizmo_thunder consisted of vamsi(me) and kedar. We actually could not make use of the whole week as my team partner had exams till last 3 days. Any way we ended up at 7th position in the contest. But it was a real fun time developing that game. You will find the contest ratings here
This is an fps ( first person shooter ) written using python, pygame and pyOpenGL. Writing an fps game using python sounds crazy but we managed to make it happen. The theme for the contest was power so in this game you will be playing as a guard who is supposed to protect a vital nuclear power plant from enemies. Enemies attack from air as well as land. Land units are more dangerous than the air units, so watch out for them.
