I am currently developing my game library that I will use for all of my
games on the Yaroze.  I am attempting to design it much after an opengl type
lib (with a nStartDraw() and a nEndDraw() function).  I am including a
collision detection system that I believe is slightly innovative, and plan
on supporting special effects like lens flares, glowing objects, and
possibly motion blur.  I also am working on a skeleton system, particle
system, and soon will start a physics model.  Wow, that is a LOT of work...
oh yeah, I am thinking of adding L.O.D. support also.  I will be able to
understand all of my functions with little reference material, I would like
to know how many people would be interested in such a lib.  If I get enough
response I will also start on a detailed guide to the lib.  It is currently
25% done, and I expect that the rest will not take too much longer!  I am
also looking for someone to help write a skeletal/mesh deformation system
for the lib, as of right now I only plan on supporting animation via a
skeleton connected to separate meshes representing different parts of the
char's body.

Your input will be greatly appreciated,
