HAP Debugger Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What is Humongous Entertaiment?
    Check out our website: www.humongous.com

  2. What is the point of another python editor?
    As we started building a game engine that uses Python as its scripting language, we found that the existing debuggers were missing a few features that we needed. The most significant of these was that our games would be running in full screen mode and we needed to be able to debug them on another machine - thus the need for a remote debugger. With the discovery of the excellent scintilla source editing control, we very quickly found that we had a debugger/editor that we preferred over other python editing options.
