Amazing Tron Clone

Armagetron Advanced :: a Tron clone in 3D

So I downloaded this game, and I like it. It's crazy fast paced. I actually have an amazing adrenaline rush after playing it. It plays out like Light Cycles from Tron,(80s) and It's Multiplayer capable. Maybe if we can get some people to download it, we can have a big game.

The game supports up to 22 AI players plus one human, so I figure that either 44 or 23 people can play for a maximum. It's crazy, you really do have to experience it to believe it. The download is fast, the game is quick to run, you will be playing 3 minutes after you click that link.

Not sure if I'd like this but Sumo mode sounds interesting, what is it?

I haven't tried it. I didn't know that there were other modes to be honest. I just downloaded it 10 minutes ago.

I check screenshots whenever I look into playing a game. Sumo mode is shown but the pics don't explain anything.

Looks like there's a center ring with several walls in a circular form. It's more like a gladiator zone, I suppose. I don't know if they move or anything, but from what I can guess it's just a map mod.

Ok so give me a run down on how it plays. I get the basic idea but how does it go down in game?

The only keys you need are Z and X.
The directional keys move your camera. Surprisingly, the camera is done really well. Perfectly, I daresay. Like I said, it really is something you need to see to believe.

Youtube cannot handle the awesome frame rate.

Maps are customizable in types and size. Apparently you can make the game quite massive, but I prefer a small, fast room.

If you are some kind of super man, you can type out and chat. This is probably better if you are dead and other people are still duking it out.

I dunno if I could handle that kind of gameplay but I think I'll give it a shot later. I'm about to beat Dragon Age after putting it off for over a year, no more delays!

Those guys were wizards. If we do this it will just be us, the AI, and anyone else we can get to join in.
