-edit- bassically just detailed vectorized 2d games.

When making a side scroller in pygame or any other comparable 2d framework with python, can you utilize graphics such as in the above link?

Thanks.

Answer 1

You can always render your vectors to bitmaps with enough resolution and use the rendered version in the game, instead of rendering everything in runtime -- that seems to be what the game you linked above does.

That said, you could use cairo to render .svgs at runtime. There's even a tutorial available.
