| With hundreds of published titles, 3D GameStudio is the leading authoring system for all sorts of 2D and 3D realtime applications. It combines the C-Script programming language with a high-end 3D engine, a 2D engine (for HUD and menus), a physics engine, a level, terrain and model editor, and huge libraries of 3D objects, artwork, scripts, and pre-made games. |

| Antiryad Gx is a cross platform 3d engine. It was tested by the creation of several projects in various studios which used some or the totality of the functionalities of the engine. Antiryad Gx is a product integrating a multitude of tools, mainly developed under Mandrake Linux. It allows to edit some levels of game, export 3d environments, create videos. The API is also acessible with C objects, C++ classes and with the embeded Gel virtual machine scripting language (the scripters have accesss to all Antiryad functions.).
All programming and graphics resources are completly platform independant, then a product developed in conformance with Antiryad API should work without modifications on all other supported platforms. |

| Artificial Engines are a group of libraries (.dlls) that help you develop games with .NET and DirectX. Artificial Engines provides the user with all underlying DirectX objects. Artificial Engines are a starting platform for any kind of games with support for rendering, physics, GUI and editor creation and even basic artificial intelligence. Artificial Engines are written in VB.NET with some unmanaged C# and C++ optimizations. While they can be used from any .NET programming language, AE offer VB developers the syntax goodies they are used to: optional parameters, case un-sensitivity and other goodies if you use Visual Studio.NET. Artificial Engines are completely free and you may use them as you like. |

| CryptEngine is a fast 3D engine for Java available as Open Source and is distributed under Mozilla Public License. It is based on OpenGL and provides components and objects allowing the description and rendering of 3D scenes. Unlike several other 3D engines, CryptEngine focuses on Rapid Application Development.It enables you to create and render complex 3D scenes without having to learn OpenGL. |

| Sauerbraten (a.k.a. Cube 2) is a free multiplayer/singleplayer first person shooter, built as a major redesign of the Cube FPS. Much like the original Cube, the aim of this game is not necessarily to produce the most features & eyecandy possible, but rather to allow map/geometry editing to be done dynamically in-game, to create fun gameplay and an elegant engine. The engine supporting the game is entirely original in code & design, and its code is Open Source (ZLIB license, read the docs for more on how you can use the engine). |
