Fun

1. We COULD just check what python packages are installed on whatever OS you are using for your PI, or
2. We could just install python and some of the normal stuff and try it. This might be the fastest answer.


You do not mention what PI os you are running, but for the most part the python is pretty standard and not terribly large (for a PI, large is not a natural choice), so it should be pretty easy.
I suspect some of the python games and applications for PI were written first on a more general distro and moved over. That would be how I would do it.

When it comes to Python, there might also be specific dependencies for a particular game so it would be even better if you specify which game you have in mind. Html5 support might vary from browser to browser. If the distribution you are using supports Google Chrome or a recent version of Firefox you should be fine.

Hi Wpeckham,

Thank You fa ur replay. I am developing IVI Based Platform on RPI so I have only Basic Packages and Weston Up and Running. Any way let me install basic Python Package and I will try some Python games.
