What commercial games have been written with pyGame?

Question

I'm curious to know what commercial games, if any, have been written with pyGame. The scale doesn't matter much, it doesn't have to be a massive success, but it should be significant that more than 2 people have ever heard of it.

I ask this because nearly everything I saw on the pyGame website seemed fairly underwhelming. I understand the amount of work that goes into even simple game development, but I'm looking for examples that, say, do a better job than your average Flash "defend the castle" game.

EDIT: Feel free to mention what scale the game is on, if its an MMO, web game, client app, number of players, overall success, etc.

Answer 1

These are probably the most prominent, although I don't believe they are commercial.

It looks like there is a game called Galcon that is commerical and written with pyGame.

Answer 2

Galcon uses pygame.

Answer 3

Generally speaking, the vast majority of game development is done in C++, or Flash for the web. Python is very rare in the field and the use of PyGame with it even rarer, due to the lack of hardware support for the graphics. So it's not surprising that people can only name Galcon - there may not actually be any others.

Answer 4

Not commercial, but you can find lots of professional quality games at pyweek.org .

Answer 5

Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble is a prominent example. It's a 2D RPG. I don't know how commercially successful it was, but it got a good reception and was nominated for a Writer's Guild Award.

Look up Wikipedia... Civilization 4, uses python for most of its tasks. Eve Online, uses Stackless Python. Freedom Force Frets On Fire uses python and pygame The Temple of Elemental Evil, a computer role-playing game based on the classic World of Greyhawk Dungeons & Dragons campaign setting. Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, a computer role-playing game based on the World of Darkness campaign setting. Vega Strike, an open source space simulator. Battlefield 2, uses Python for all of its addons and a lot of its functionality Teeworlds uses python and pygame

This discussion is very helpful to us. We're looking for a programming language to do our games.
