I remember playing on a Lynx and thinking it was quite good, but you're talking to someone who was brought up with Amigas, so I know exactly what you mean Note: the OpenGL usage seems very limited (just a few functions use the fixed pipeline), so I imagine someone who knows what they're doing can port relatively easily.
