So my buddy said he was making a video game using this thing, I was curious to get your take on it Lirmont and Kivutar. It's apparently geared towards online games and is probably overkill for a tethical-type game. But the video's are impressive, just wondering what you guys think for using any of this to build an SRPG

Here's a short tutorial about the programming used and how their language differs from other languages:

And a wiki page with a couple examples of how to do basic things:

I took a look at HeroEngine. It looks interesting, I didn't knew that there were engines like this using could computing etc.
But we are happy with our current stack: Panda3D is well documented, and Python is a popular interpreted language for gaming. Plus it is all open source.
