Panda3D was developed by Disney for their massively multiplayer online game, Toontown. Panda3D includes graphics, audio, I/O, and collision detection for the creation of 3D games. Panda3D is open source as of May 28, 2008 . Panda3D's intended game-development language is Python. The engine itself is written in C++, and uses an automatic wrapper-generator to expose the complete functionality of the engine in a Python interface. This approach gives a developer the advantages of Python development, such as rapid development and advanced memory management, but keeps the performance of a compiled language in the engine core.
