Linalgeuc is a 3D engine for various shapes including cubes, cylinders, and planes that was built using a custom linear algebra library.
It does not claim to follow best practices or be optimized in any way.
Rather, linalgeuc is intended to be a fun project to learn about the implementation of linear algebra and 3D graphics programming, while trying to rederive as much as possible on my own.
Clone (or download), install dependencies, and run like the following:
$ git clone https://github.com/aneziac/linalgeuc.git
$ cd linalgeuc
$ python3 -m linalgeuc
You can also run it windowed with the w flag:
$ python3 -m linalguec -w
Press 'r' to rotate, 's' to scale, or 't' to translate. Then, the axis you affect is controlled by pressing some key in 'qweadx'. Revert to initial settings with 'i'. Select different entities with the number keys. Orbit the viewpoint by holding the middle mouse button, and zoom with the scroll wheel. Pan by holding left shift and left click. Change among different projection types by pressing some key in ',./mb'.
Press escape to close.
You can modify what shapes are shown, as well as their properties, by editing the driver code in linalgeuc/__main__.py.
For example, you can change the default icosahedron to a sphere or a cone.

- Thanks to @SomeLoserWhoCantPickOriginalUsernames for originally beginning the linear algebra library.
- Shoutout to @lama0608 for helping test the code.
