+### [Undergrad Thesis on Game Scripting for Legion][legion-script]
+
+In December 2020, [@pablodiegoss] and [@rodrigocam] presented their undergrad
+thesis where they created a proof-of-concept scripting system for the Legion ECS,
+called [Legion Script][legion-script].
+Legion is being currently integrated into the [Amethyst game engine][amethyst],
+and this contribution might be included in future releases.
+
+With [Legion Script][legion-script], it is possible to declare, write and read
+components into Legion using Python scripts.
+However, this project exports an API which can be evolved
+for other languages and interpreters.
+
+Since then, both developers have been sharing their work and receiving feedbacks
+for the project while planning the next steps for the code, which is available
+at [GitHub][legion-script].
+
+The PDF version of the thesis could be found
+in [this Amethyst forum thread][thesis-thread].
