Great casual arena shooter, but it baffles me how a small indie game like this has a pseudo matchmaking system instead of a dedicated server browser.

Rating 6/10 Intro It's quite bare-bones in terms of offline bot support, but it does manage create a unique identity, while also fleshing out the Instagib mode from Quake 3 Arena. But still, let us use bots on all game modes and you'll have something special to build upon. Positives + Unique vibe. + Good soundtrack. + Good level design. + Steam Workshop support. + Weapons have good impact. + Great aesthetics and graphics. Negatives - Finding online matches is not easy. - Limited offline bots. Out of the five available game modes, only two of them (Deathmatch and Survival) can be played with bots.

The workshop maps alone make this game a must buy. I had a lot of fun finding the craziest maps on the workshop and playing them with my friends.

<3 One of the greatest game soundtracks ever (if not the greatest)! I've literally went to sleep overnight with it playing on loop.... Still not sick of it lol. Amazing fun & memories playing this, even when just playing with bots if no one else is around. I absolutely <3 arena shooters/instagib. It's such a shame high skill ceiling arena games like this died out to dumbed down, no skill trash games like COD that just pander to the stupid masses ;( I ended up getting so good at this game that I got to Master rating, & could compete with the absolute best players (probably to the anger & frustration of most people I played with lol). I originally bought this in a 4 pack to share with some friends. Now just priceless memories :) But this is probably one of my favourite games ever! The gameplay is absolutely tight, but even just soaking up the audio/visual experience is enough to fire it up again & relive some of those nostalgic times.
