New program to watch

I was reading the google summer of code for Python stuff and noticed this gem:

PyTrails

(Jennifer Dozar)

I'm working on an extensible opensource engine for implementing
trail-style games such as Oregon Trail or Amazon Trail. The primary
goal is to produce a quality edutainment title that can be used free
of cost. The secondary goal is to make it easy for other edutainment
trail games to be created. PyTrails will be Python based and uses
PyGame. The engine will allow following a branching map including
making stops to rest, hunt, or trade. Additional choices such as
shopping and fording rivers may be available at special points. Each
of these activities will be replacable in other trail games as to
allow for maximum flexibility.
