“If someone decompiles my codeI will be ruined.”

Yes it's trivial to decompile python to something usable

You can do the same to some degree to almost every other language

Get over yourself.

YOUR GAME WILL NOT BE GODS GIFT TO COMPUTING

IT WILL NOT SOLVE THE DA VINCI CODE

SO IT DOESN'T MATTER IF SOMEONE GETS SOMETHINGTHAT'S KINDA LIKE ALMOST THE SOURCE CODE

PLUS THINK OF THE MODS
