Projects
 | Crystal Space is our main project. It is a free cross-platform software development kit for realtime 3D graphics, with particular focus on games.
|
 | CEL (Crystal Entity Layer) is a companion to Crystal Space, adding entity management and thus providing a game engine. Read more. |
 | CELstart is a CEL-based environment for self-contained game packages, allowing easy game creation via scripting, thereby making the development process easier for those less proficient with C++. The package nature of games also make distribution simple. Read more. |
 | Apricot is the Open Game project together with Blender. |
 | Crystal Core is the Crystal Space demo game. It is an single player shooter/quest based game using CELstart technology. Read more. |

You can nominate Crystal Space for the Community Choice Awards on SourceForge. I would recommend voting it as the 'Best Project for Gamers' category. At least if you think that Crystal Space qualifies for that of course! Thanks for your support.
- 08:35, 23 April 2008: Google Summer of Code 2008 Accepted
The Google Summer of Code 2008 students for Crystal Space have been selected. Since we have five mentors we decided for five slots and thanks to Google we also got those slots.
The following students were accepted:
- Greg Hoffman with improvements to lighter2.
- Pavel Krajcevski with Real-Time Rendering of Water Meshes.
- Daniel Duarte Mendes with NavMesh generation and editing tools, Pathfinder& Steering improvements.
- Julian Mautner with Realtime cloud simulation and rendering system.
- Michael Gist with Cross thread communication and multi-threaded loading.
Congratulations to those students. We hope their contributions will be a success and perhaps they can even remain long-time Crystal Space contributors in the future.
Of course, selecting those five students means a lot of other students didn't get selected. It is always unfortunate to have to decline very good proposals but that's the nature of the game. We do hope that some of you still decide to work with and for Crystal Space. If you do so then you are warmly invited to work as a volunteer.

For people who are not following the Apricot blog yet you probably should. There has been a rather interesting video posted on it which shows the prototype of the game so far and also some art that is in production right now. The team is making good progress so things are looking good! You can find the blog at this location.
And btw, you can still pre-order those DVD's :-)

Last weekend members of the Crystal Space and Blender teams met in Amsterdam at the workshop about the Apricot OpenGame project. Here you can read a full report.
We still need more presales of the DVD! Now is the time to support Crystal Space and Blender. Thanks a lot for your support.
- 18:42, 6 December 2007: Apricot Funding Campaign
Finally it starts! The Apricot team has been selected and is ready to make a smashing game using Crystal Space and Blender. In order to support this Apricot project (and support Crystal Space!) you can pre-order the DVD. This is very important for us as it gives us the needed funds to make sure the project can go for six months. You can get more information and pre-order information at The Apricot Blog. Thanks for your support!
