BGE PyAPI support for subclassing any BGE game type from python, scripters define extra functions on gameObjects.

Adding a UI to set the type on startup can be added easily.

# ----
class myPlayer(GameTypes.KX_GameObject):
  def die(self):
    # ... do stuff ...
    self.endObject()

# make an instance
player = myPlayer(gameOb) # gameOb is made invalid now.
player.die()

# ----

One limitation (which could also be an advantage), is making the subclass instance will return that subclass everywhere, you cant have 2 different subclasses of the same BGE data at once.
