Well, there is nothing in the product description to say that, or that it is promised:

Features: BlitzMax compiler, core BlitzMax modules, Max2D graphics module, IDE, debugger, sample code and documentation. Source code for all modules included.

However, you seem to have forgotten the fact that it CAN be (and is being) used for 3D games by loads of people.
