It was actually typed. Python had type annotations at the time.

I only wrote C++ very early in my career so I don't remember much, but I'm sure I at least tried some inheritance in toy games I would write. All of that code was trash though by my standards today.

Still does, but you don't have to.

So you haven't had much experience with oop?

I have used OOP design patterns many times, but that doesn't mean I use inheritance a lot. I almost always reach for interfaces instead.
