http://sourceforge.net/projects/armagetronad/ You can do it cross-platform, too. That top screenshot is from a game me, Colleen, and YD were playing last night. Later on Jasukan joined in. The bottom screenshot is from just now, when I was all "Hey, I should get another screenshot" and I played against the AI. Anyway it's awesome. You can do multiplayer games... well, I think there's a built-in thing for internet match things, but you can do it in a more controlled environment by hosting a LAN game and having other people do "custom connect" using your IP as the server name. The options don't have anything wacky, but it is fairly customizable: you can set the speed of the matches, the size of the arena, how long someone's trail stays after they die (I always had it on infinite), how big the blast radius of a bike is when it explodes (it takes out trails)... I think you can set whether trails are infinite or if they recede, like Snake or something, but I always left it on infinite. Anyway, yeah. It rocks. |

This game is seriously the bomb. I was playing this afternoon. We should all leave our AIM names or something, so that we can set up a game really quick. if that's the case: toxic avenger6 |

Mine is in my profile. But here it is again: bsznm No AIM linkies because I'm not bothering to go look at how to do that. |

I will download this, and maybe play people later... Looks neat, and it's open source. |

The open source thing isn't that relevant to us - the cross-platform thing IS. One of the few games that we can bug pretty much anyone on the board to play. And if you're still confused... If you've played or seen Tron, you'll recognize the game right away. If not... Think a high-speed version of Nibbles. |

Or multiplayer Snake. (For people such as myself who can't recall what Nibbles is.) In the background you can see the aftermath of some CRAZY SHIT going down. This may not look like much, but imagine it going REALLY REALLY FAST. Like, super fast. |

Interesting game here I'm surprised at how fun the game is despite its simplicity. I've only played for less than an hour and am already becoming familiar with some of the AI's tricks and strategies... ystam4 is my AIM nick; I'm usually on for a couple hours late at night, starting around 10:30 or 11:00 EST. |

Your speed will increase even if you're not sparking the wall, but it depends how far you are away from it - being half a grid space away will speed you up, a full space not as much. | |||

Maybe someone here should host an official board server, instead of joining one with people in it. | |||

Also: I cry inside. It says "April Fools" at the top. I hope that means the whole site, in its current state, is actually an April Fools joke. I fear this is not the case. |
