Pyglet is a software library for the Python programming language which provides OpenGL graphics functionality with optional support for audio functionality as well (typically via AVbin).

Both Python and Pyglet are released under open-source licenses which allow them to be used for applications intended for free distribution, shareware distribution, or even commercial distribution.  You can develop a game with Pygame and Pyglet, and then sell it for commercial gain.  Please see the respective Python license and Pyglet license for details.  Pyglet is released under a BSD license.

 

This section will provide information about where to Download Pygame (and provide mirrors), Tutorials on installation and use, and Examples of games written with Pyglet.  You can reach these sections by clicking the links in this paragraph, or by selecting them from the navigation pane to the left.
