So, this engine is new to me. I was looking for a rendering-only engine (which this isn't) when I found this.
I'm wondering if anyone has any hands-on experience with it, his it compares to everything else out there, etc.
Any recommendation or, on the contrary, advice to stay away from it?

Is this sort of an open-source version of Marmoset?

It's an open source descendant of CryEngine. Basically, Amazon bought the rights to distribute a fork of CryEngine as a marketing ploy. They called this fork Lumberyard, and modified it to make it very easy to use their cloud services for online connectivity. Then they got bored of maintaining it themselves and released it as an open source project under the umbrella of the Linux Foundation.
