MrSiggler and Phantom (aka waltervn) have released version 0.1.0 of their multi-platform chess game DreamChess.

Here's the info from the project's website:

DreamChess is an open source chess game. Our primary target platforms are Linux, Windows, Dreamcast and BeOS. DreamChess features 3D OpenGL graphics and provides various chess board sets, ranging from classic wooden to flat figurines.
A moderately strong chess engine is included: Dreamer. However, should this engine be too weak for you, then you can use any other XBoard-compatible chess engine, including the popular Crafty and GNU Chess.
Other features include on-screen move lists using SAN notation, undo functionality, and savegames in PGN format. In future releases we plan to add support for time controls, audio, network play, more visual effects such as reflections and shadows, and 3D animated pieces.
We hope you enjoy the game!
