Multiplayer First Person Shooter
Tremulous is a free, open source game that blends a team based FPS with elements of an RTS. Players can choose from 2 unique races, aliens and humans. Players on both teams are able to build working structures in-game like an RTS. These structures provide many functions, the most important being spawning. The designated builders must ensure there are spawn structures or other players will not be able to rejoin the game after death. The overall objective behind Tremulous is to eliminate the opposing team. This is achieved by not only killing the opposing players but also removing their ability to respawn by destroying their spawn structures.
This is primarily a balance tweak release, but it also contains a few bug fixes. The data gleamed from 210 hours of play was invaluable in making the decisions for 1.0.1. In a short time we should be able to tell in what direction things have moved balance wise, and by how much. With a bit of luck it

Barring any major show stoppers, this will probably be the last release of Tremulous that requires Quake 3. After a short break I'll dive into knocking out a preliminary standalone version, so that we can determine the amount of work involved.
