A while back, I wrote an Intern’s Corner post entitled My Open Source Life Outside of MAKE, in which I talked about my experience working on Alien Arena, the open source first-person shooter. Well, for those who might be interested, I’m proud to announce that version 7.60, codenamed “Reloaded Edition,” has recently been released. It’s a free, open source, and extremely fun video game that runs on Windows and Linux. Download it here.
Some of the new features for this release include:
- Many new rendering features
- Twelve new/rebuilt levels
- Two new player characters, the Overlord and Warrior
- Brand new “super” weapon, the Minderaser
- Improved antilag code
- “Simple” items rendering option
- Improved and expanded movement
- Improved Bot AI, particulary with CTF
- New music, and music “shifts” in game situations
- Variety of bug fixes and code cleansing
