Features:

• designed to use with pysimavr (simavr wrapper)
• arduino simulator included
• maximum speed can be real-time
• speed control
• audio back-end: PyAudio
• graphic back-end: PyGame (SDL wrapper)

Known problems:

• Python 3 is not supported
• tested only on linux
• real-time sleep() is used in simavr, so speed control is far from perfect
• occasional crash by firmware reload
• poor sound quality

Test using virtual machine: there is a vagrant configuration inside vagrant directory
