I'm still wondering how on earth I missed this, but it seems that there are at least two game engines already using the "SAGE" acronym. The letters don't mean the same, but they're still too close. And even closer if you take into account that one of them is co-developed by Electronic Arts.
So I had to bite the dust and choose a new name, and I came up with "Derange".
What? I like it!
Anyway, this time I chose not to pick a name that relates to the kind of engine I'm making, because for example, I might implement adventure game specific functionality as a plugin, to be supported by the core classes. Or maybe not. But the bottom line is that I think this approach gives more freedom. That, and I'm sick of making up weird acronym based names.
So that's it. Bricks have officially been shat. In a painful way.
Meet Derange™.
