gem v0.1.6

Math library for game programming in python.

pyGameMath

This is a math library written in python for 2D/3D game development which is also compatible with pypy. I made it while I was learning more about the math used in graphics development and for personal use in OpenGL related projects.

It’s still a work in progress.

Dependencies:

It uses six to allow support between python2.x and python3.x.

Install:

To install the library just do

pip install gem

It will install the dependicies automatically.

Documentation and Examples:

The examples on how to use the library and more info are maintained on the github wiki:
