3D Python OpenGL Chess Game

The 3D Python OpenGL Chess Game project is a fantastic 3D chess game that utilizes Python with OpenGL in its development. Apart from its excellent graphics, the game is a standard chess game that still lacks a computer player. However, you can play with a friend on your PC, which is equally satisfying.

To play this game, you need to have Python 2.2 or higher, as well as OpenGL GL, GLU, and GLUT libraries installed on your PC. To start the game, all you have to do is type "python2.2 play.py" in the game directory.

Playing the game is easy and understandable, even for beginners. You can manipulate the game with the mouse by selecting blocks on the board with the left mouse button, rotating the board with the right mouse button, and accessing the menu with the middle mouse button. Additionally, if your PC doesn't have three mouse buttons, you can still control the game using the keyboard. Pressing 'escape' will quit the game, while 'u' allows you to undo the last move of the game. Similarly, you can enable or disable the animation mode with 'a,' and the shadows of the pieces with 's.'

In general, the 3D Python OpenGL Chess Game project is an exciting and engaging software that you should try. Its simplicity and user-friendly interface make it a must-have for chess enthusiasts of all levels.
