Python is the world's most popular programming language for a reason. The ease of use of Python combined with ursina's design, makes it easy to write concise code and avoid lots of boilerplate code.

from ursina import *

app = Ursina()
                
cube = Entity(model='cube', color=hsv(300,1,1), scale=2, collider='box')
                
def spin():
cube.animate('rotation_y', cube.rotation_y+360, duration=2, curve=curve.in_out_expo)
                
cube.on_click = spin
EditorCamera()  # add camera controls for orbiting and moving the camera
                
app.run()
            

Make any type of game

2D games, 3D games, applications, visualizations, you can make anything you want with ursina.

Iterate faster

• Reload code/textures/models while in game
• Automatic import of .psd and .blend files
• Compile times:

Iteration speed benchmark. Time from code/scene change to play. Game: pong clone. Lower is better.

engine:         duration:       times as slow:

ursina          00.01s          1x
Godot           01.18s          118x
Unity           11.45s          1145x
            

Modern UI

• Sleek modern design.
• Full control. Change the looks of anything, down to the smallest details.
• Built with Entities like everything else, so you don't have to relearn anything.

Batteries Included

• Easy to use mesh class for making procedural geometry
• Built-in animation and tweening
• Pre-made prefabs such as FirstPersonController, 2d Platformer controller, and Editor Camera
• Lots of included procedural 3d primitives
• Many shaders to choose from. Or write your own using GLSL
