A developer has released PyWolf3D, a clone of the classic first-person shooter Wolfenstein 3D written entirely from scratch in Python, with the code available on GitHub. The project includes a BSP tree implementation for rendering, mimicking the engine techniques of the original 1992 game. Readers are discussing the unusual choice of Python for a performance-sensitive game engine and debating how far interpreted languages can go.
