Game development

Are there any good libraries for rapid game development?

It needs to be cross-platform, as I want to develop on GNU/Linux, but need it running on Windows as well.

So PyGame has no good advantage over sdl? Then I'd rather use sdl and its bindings to my favorite language (tm), rather than Python.

OP, what kind of game are you thinking about?
I'm not sure yet. I'm thinking of participating in http://gameawards.no, mostly for fun.

If you can mention a genre specific engine, that might influence my game type :)
