Open Source Python interpreter in 1 file for game scripting

pocketpy is a lightweight(~10000 LOC) Python interpreter for game scripting, built on C++17 with STL.

It aims to be an alternative to lua for game scripting, with elegant syntax, powerful features and competitive performance. pocketpy is extremely easy to embed via a single header file pocketpy.h, without external dependencies.

See https://pocketpy.dev for details or try Live Demo.
