Torque 3D is at 1.0.1 and we are full-steam ahead on 1.1. Unity Technology has revamped the "indie" version of Unity and released it for free to the masses; their iPhone and Pro engines are rushing through the marketplace as well. The Game Creators has released their ad-supported version of DarkBasic Pro for free. And the big shocker is that Epic has released the Unreal Development Kit for free. The PushButton Engine is still free and one kick ass little Flash/Flex-based engine. With Adobe's note that CS5 will include deployment to the iPhone, this little engine is a very big deal!
It is a very good time for game developers everywhere!
