Soya3D
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Soya3D is a high-level Python module for creating 3D computer and video games. Soya is free software, licensed under the GPL.
However, Soya3D still remains a personal project of its founder, Jean-Babtist Lamy. In response, a more community-driven fork of Soya called PySoy is being developed.
