The Getaway began as an entry in the third PyWeek competition. It ranked 12th in the 'individual entry' category... out of 16.

The Getaway begins after your semi-sucessful robbery of the bank. All that stands between you and freedom are any number of policemen. Racing around the city, you need to lose their trail and get to the safehouse before you wreck your getaway car!

The game is played top-down, but due to the fact that I used OpenGL it's actually a 3D game. There's a chase camera built into this game for no other purpose than to illustrate this fact. The language used was Python, the graphics library used was Pygame and the 3D was provided by PyOpenGL.
