We're back from a rather long haitus from the mod (Life is nothing but a series of curveballs, etcetera ectetera) and we're gearing up for another release of our pet sidescrolling mod, Ragnarok Arena.
What is Ragnarok Arena?
Ragnarok Arena (RA, for short) is a sidescrolling multiplayer shooter built on the Source engine. Gameplay is brutal and fast paced, with realism being thrown to the side in exchange for adrenaline-fueled arcade action (as really should only be done in a sidescroller).
What we're looking for is, primarily, mappers.
I don't think I can stress that enough. Mapping for Ragnarok Arena requires a somewhat specific mindset due to it's 2D nature. It's a rather entertaining change however, allowing you to make things that would generally be scoffed at in a standard first person shooter. If you've ever been a fan of platformers and you've got any skill in Hammer, we want you!Ragnarok Arena maps are built around the Capture the Flag game mode, so that means two player 'bases' where the flags reside. Symmetry is not required in any way. If you've got any questions, I'll gladly answer them.
You can play the mod now by downloading it from Ragnarok Arena.com
Previous experience is not required and we don't have any inane requests. Just sent me an e-mail or throw a message my way on any messengers with at least one screenshot of previous work and we'll talk. (I'm also Ackart on Steam if you want to message me there.)As a final note, we've also got openings for modelers and we always have beta testing slots, for anyone that's interested.
