You can play this game on the web at http://electronstudio.github.io/raylib-example-game . Works on mobile devices!

You can download binary releases for Windows, Macos and Linux from https://github.com/electronstudio/raylib-example-game/releases/latest

You can install this game from pypi:

uv tool install raylib-example-game
raylib-example-game

This project defaults to PyPy 3.11 for improved runtime performance. To switch to CPython:

uv sync --python python3.13

This project uses raylib_sdl instead of the standard raylib package for enhanced controller and gamepad compatibility.

If you prefer to use the standard Raylib backend, you can switch by updating the dependency:

# Remove raylib_sdl and add standard raylib
uv remove raylib_sdl
uv add raylib

Backend Comparison:

• raylib_sdl: Better controller/gamepad support, SDL backend
• raylib: Standard Raylib backend, potentially faster for basic graphics

The API is identical between both packages - no code changes are needed when switching.

Creating Releases:

# Tag and push to create a release with binaries
git tag v1.0.0
git push upstream v1.0.0

Important: The workflow requires contents: write permission to create GitHub releases. If release creation fails with a 403 error, check your repository's Actions permissions under Settings → Actions → General → Workflow permissions.

Build for web deployment using pygbag:

# Build for web and start local server
uv run build-web

# Build for web only (no server)
uv run build-web --build

Github Actions automatically deploys the game to GitHub Pages on push to master.
