arena: Quake-like multiplayer shooter 2023-12-18T00:21:50Z Adam Stück https://arena.adast.dk,2022-04-23:default-atom-feed/ Project introduction, May 2021 <h1>Project introduction, May 2021</h1> <p>2021-05-07</p> <p><strong>arena</strong> (working title) is a multiplayer old-school arena shooter being made with the Unity game engine. It's a hobby project that I have been working on since 2016. It started as a <em>warmup</em> project before jumping into developing an MMO, but I have since learned how much work goes into making just a multiplayer fps. Especially as a solo project. </p> <p>At it's core, <strong>arena</strong> is supposed to be my attempt at recreating a mix of Quake 3 / Quake Live along with whatever else I decide to add. </p> <p>Main features (so far):</p> <ul> <li>p2p multiplayer</li> <li>support for custom maps</li> <li>vq3-like movement</li> <li>rocket launcher + rocket jumping</li> <li>health pickups</li> <li>3 gamemodes (FFA, TDM, Race)</li> </ul> <p>I'm in the process of rewriting a lot of systems in the game at the moment because I'm switching from janky p2p multiplayer to an authoritative server setup with client-side prediction <a href="https://www.gabrielgambetta.com/client-server-game-architecture.html">(more)</a>.</p> https://arena.adast.dk/2021-05 2021-05-07T10:00:00Z 2021-05-07T10:00:00Z
