Hi, Maybe you could play with "capivar hunter" (or capybara hunter). It's a game a friend of mine developed just for fun a couple of years ago (I've read it to learn a little and have even added some code to it). It uses opengl, numeric python, tcp/ip and pickle/message passing. It has a client/server architecture (I think the client did drawing and the server had the logic). The game is completely trivial, it's a first person shooter with that polygonal look. The game is in sourceforge. A good task would be to add heuristics to the capybaras or add new terrain objects (my friend wanted to add fractal trees once), while ensuring that the code keeps clean and simple. :-) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
