The Crystal Space overview:

Name: Crystal Space, a portable 3D engine/game SDK
Homepage: http://crystal.linuxgames.com
Type: high level platform abstraction
Developed by: Crystal Space development team
Description: The Crystal Space SDK is specific gaming SDK for 3D games.
The purpose is to have a good 3D engine which runs on as many platforms
as possible. Crystal Space contains a software renderer, a Direct3D renderer,
and a Glide renderer. OpenGL is planned. In addition to the 3D engine
Crystal Space will also provide a communication system (using COM) for
a scripting language (ReAct) and a physics toolbox which will also communicate
with the engine. Sound and networking libraries are also being considered.
Supported Platforms: Linux, Win32, DOS, OS/2, Macintosh and Amiga.
Main Language: C++
Existing Language Wrappers: none yet (COM in future?)
Status: beta version is functional. Amiga and Macintosh ports are broken.
Currently a large transition to COM is busy. First only for the system dependent
parts. OpenGL is planned. The ReAct language is being developed. Various
other little things...

English Burger Lords managed to take any American fast food virtues (the
speed with which your food was delivered, for example) and carefully remove
them; your food arrived after half an hour, at room temperature, and it was
only because of the strip of warm lettuce between them that you could
distinguish the burger from the bun. The Burger Lord pathfinder salesmen
had been shot 25 minutes after setting foot in France.
