Python programming game?
 

Has anyone seen robocode (http://robocode.sourceforge.net/)? It's a game where you have to program bots in java that fight with each other. Or has anyone played GNU robots? In that game you have to program bots in scheme that try to survive on the levels you/someone has created. Is there any similar game for python programmers? I once saw a game where you could do it with any programming language, but I want a python programming game.

If you could do it with any programming language, why isn't python included :confused:

Edit the link and you might get more replies. http://robocode.sourceforge.net/. There done it for you ;)

Robocode is really fun to play with. We had a robocode tournament here at the university. It was really fun. The first place went to a guy who has actually done work with robot AI. His bot was really intelegent. :p Although the best victory dance went to my buddy, who's robot when he won a match would go to the area of the other robots defeat and run over that spot a few times.

If you can gather up enough people I highly recomend doing something similar. ^_^

MegaArcon that's one reason I would like this game- competing with others. I'd like to do it over the internet.

MBirchmeier I don't WANT to play that game. I think it can be played with python, but I want a python only game.

Seems that there isn't a game like this so if I learn to program (:D) I have to do it myself.

It shouldn't be too hard to create such a game. Robocode is, in essence, a pretty simple game. With PyGame, it shouldn't be too hard to recreate such a game.

The only problem I can see is the difficulty of sandboxing. Java has sandboxing, Python doesn't, which means that any Python programming game might have some security risks.

This would be dope in python........

Wow, that sounds like alot of fun ^^, keep us updated please =P
