Welcome to PyUnity’s documentation!

Version 0.8.4 (in development)

PyUnity is a pure Python 3D Game Engine that was inspired by the structure of the Unity Game Engine. This does not mean that PyUnity are bindings for the UnityEngine. However, this project has been made to facilitate any programmer, beginner or advanced, novice or veteran.

Disclaimer

As we have said above, this is not a set of bindings for the UnityEngine, but a pure Python library to aid in making 3D games in Python.

Installing

To install PyUnity for Linux distributions based on Ubuntu or Debian, use:

> pip3 install pyunity

To install PyUnity for other operating systems, use pip:

> pip install pyunity

Alternatively, you can clone the repository to build the package from source. The latest version is on the master branch and you can build as follows:

> git clone https://github.com/pyunity/pyunity
> git checkout master
> python setup.py install

The latest builds are on the develop branch which is the default branch. These builds are sometimes broken, so use at your own risk.

> git clone https://github.com/pyunity/pyunity
> python setup.py install

Its only dependencies are PyOpenGL, PySDL2, GLFW, Pillow and PyGLM. Microsoft Visual C++ Build Tools are required on Windows for building yourself.
