Axiom Engine: open source 3D engine

[wyrd]

Open source, free, etc. Some great stuff being made with C# that I didn't know about! Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Also note this bad boy can be used to render in either OpenGL (using TapenGL - .NET OpenGL port, search google) or Direct3D.

The Axiom Engine Project is a fully object oriented game engine development effort using C# and the Microsoft.Net platform to create an easy to use, flexible, extendable, and powerful engine that allows for rapid development of games for various genres. By using the .Net framework as the target platform, developers can focus more on core functionality and logic, rather than dealing with the complexities of languages like C++.

The core of Axiom is a port of the very popular OGRE graphics engine, which was chosen based on its clean object-oriented design, powerful features, and flexibilty.
