Pyglet has built-in support for mouse and keyboard events, and can load several multimedia file formats (optionally via AVbin). OpenAL, DirectSound or ALSA can be used for audio playback, with 3D positional audio support.

Pyglet is divided into several interdependent modules such as pyglet.gl, pyglet.graphics, pyglet.image, pyglet.media, pyglet.text, and pyglet.window.

The current version of Pyglet does not support Python 3.x (install reports "pyglet requires Python 2.4 or later. The Installation will be aborted.").
