New framework named “Nuclex” for .NET is released. It is set of classes that developers can use to mix and develop applications as per their need.

What is Nuclex ?

The Nuclex Framework is a collection of well-designed building blocks for XNA games and other demanding applications written in .NET. These building blocks are not interconnected — you can pick what you need, mix and match with other class libraries and architect your game the way you want it.

What are the features ?

* Better Collections (Deque, PriorityQueue)
* 3D Text Rendering
* LZMA Content Compression (that’s 7-Zip’s compression)
* Arbitrary Primitive Batching (think 3D SpriteBatch)
* Rectangle Packing
* Multi-threaded Particle System
* Themeable Graphical User Interfaces
* Game State Management
* Spatial Partitioning (R-Tree, QuadTree)
* Debugging Overlays
* Collision Detection
* Automatic Vertex Declarations

From where to get it ?
You can download the Nuclex from the Codeplex site .
