Project Anarchy is getting the hackers talking stateside, but what does it mean for the whole developer world?

For those of you wondering, Project Anarchy is a free mobile game engine that supports Android x86, among other platforms. It includes Havok’s Vision Engine along with Havok Physics, Havok Animation Studio and Havok AI. It has C++ architecture, optimised mobile rendering and a flexible asset management system.
