Once ready, deploy to web with
pyckitup buildThis creates a build/ directory which contains everything you need to deploy your awesome game to the web. Simply copy the folder to where you want it served.
How it works
pyckitup is a thin layer glueing RustPython interpreter to quicksilver game engine. It compiles to a single binary on different systems. Native binaries(as opposed to wasm) also come with wasm files.
When you load a pyckitup game in browser, it loads a single 5MB wasm blob and interprets Python code stored in localStorage. As a result there is a 10MB code size limit.
