Atari Lynx and Jaguar coder 42Bastian is working on new Atari Jaguar 3D engine and published a few work in Progress videos.

We asked 42Bastian what is his main motivation for the engine and he says:

"The motivation for this engine is multiple: In the last years since we made BJL I made different attempts for 3D code. But always just some rotating things. But ever since I played Cybermorph I wanted to have a real 3D engine.

Next is, I want to make a real engine, something w/o demo trickery someone could use to make a game out of it. And last, I wanted to show, that the 68k is not needed at all. I myself do not plan to make a game out of it, but hope to get the engine to a state where someone else can use it."

Interesting, so it's an engine using the Jaguar GPU only. If you want to have a look, the source code is available on Github.
