What it is

Momentum is everything

Quake-style strafing with air control, wall-jumps, dashes and slope-slides. Friction punishes standing still: strafe-accel and bunny-hopping let you keep and build speed.

Grapple & ball mode

A rope-swing grapple and a Wrecking-Ball form that heats blue→red as you accelerate. Go fast enough and you ram clean through people.

Wildcard ultimates

Deal damage to charge your ultimate, then unleash it at melee range to pull your opponent into a one-on-one showdown. Win it and you walk away.

Weapon identity

A Quake-style lightning beam, a burst railgun, rockets, and a Portal gun. One class, weapons that each play differently. Vampiric lifesteal on every hit.

Maps & modes

A dozen arenas plus race courses, with FFA, Team Deathmatch, Instagib, Wave Survival, Frag & Time limits, and a trial campaign.

Real netcode

Server-authoritative movement with client prediction & reconciliation, lag-compensated hitscan, and an in-game server browser. Built for duels.
