SRL Archive - Gaming

Pretty awesome game. It's a 3D-clone of Tron (apparently it's some Disney movie from the 1980s where they did this type of thing).

Basically, you ride bikes and this wall comes out behind you and you've got to not crash into it or anyone else's. Last man standing (well, depends on the settings you have) wins. Basically, it's like snake (except with more players)!

You can play online or by yourself and against the AI (the AI takes their names after popular programs. E.g: Quake, Linux, Excel, Outlook, LaTeX). It's free, open source and compatible with Linux, Windows and Mac.

Website is here: http://armagetronad.net/ .

Default keys (since so many people on IRC asked) is to turn left, Z, and to turn right, X. (You can change these at any time, and/or assign more than one key binding).

If you're using Ubuntu, just open the Ubuntu Software Centre and search for 'Armagetron' (without the quotes of course :p).

Also, don't play with R0b0t1, he'll keep going crazy and eventually die :p

Want to play online?
Sure! Just head over to the SRL IRC channel and ask! :D

See you guys on there :)

At the moment, at the time of writing Ogre, Rubix, R0b0t1, Jason2gs and I are playing on R0b0t's hosted server. Come and join now! :)

Well, I have to thank you for the bump Mr.Banned :p, because I have never seen this tread, but the game looks interesting. Will try out.


EDIT: Aww, the cute post was deleted now everybody will think that I am an idiot … xD
There was a spambot post before this, for future reference.

Just tried it out, it was pretty cool. When I have some more time to waste I'll see if anybody in the IRC wants to play. :p

Wow I've never seen anyone talking about AA on another forum XD – I play WW Sumo and loose df a lot
