ika is a
free, generic
game development engine geared (only slightly) towards the creation of
console style RPGs, utilizing the
Python programming language for scripting. The graphical rendering system supports 32-bit color (that's 16.7 million colors and 256 shades of
translucency per pixel) and hardware acceleration.
ika can use the WAV, MOD, IT, S3M, XM, OGG, MP3, and FLAC audio formats; graphically, BMP, PCX, GIF, JPG, PNG, and TGA are supported.
