The game is a single-player and multi-player first-person ego-shooter, built as a total conversion of Cube Engine 2, which lends itself toward a balanced gameplay, completely at the control of map makers, while maintaining a general theme of agility in a variety of environments.
In a true open source by the people for the people nature, it tries to work closely with the gaming and open source communities to provide a better overall experience, taking all sorts of feedback from your average player, to your seasoned developer, aiming to create a story-driven game environment that is flexible, fun, easy to use, and pleasing to the eye
Lookin good.
Looks good, plays well, but I don't think "Campaign" mode would count as you and a few bots shooting a stream of infinitely spawning grunts...
What I would like to add here is that Red Eclipse offers a variety of maps(levels), weapons and a map editor, so that you can create your own maps. Even if the game is promoted as a Multi Player FPS, it has a decent Single Player mode too with a noteworthy AI.To know more visit: ubuntumanual.org
