• see wiki for actual list of game features

• see wiki for actual list of engine features

• Oldskool fast & intense gameplay (read: similar to Doom 2 / Quake 1).
• Many multiplayer gameplay modes, most in teamplay variants as well: deathmatch, instagib, efficiency, tactics, capture (domination/battlefield style), CTF (capture the flag), coop edit (!).
• 7 weapons: double barrelled shogun, rocket launcher, machine gun, rifle, grenade launcher, pistol, fist.

• 6 directional heightfield in octree world structure allowing for instant easy in-game geometry editing (even in multiplayer, coop edit).
• Rendering engine optimized for high geometry throughput, supporting hardware occlusion culling and software precomputed conservative PVS with occluder fusion.
• Lightmap based lighting with accurate shadows from everything including mapmodels, smooth lighting for faceted geometry, and fast compiles. Soft shadowmap based shadows for dynamic entities.
• Pixel and vertex shader support, each model and world texture can have its own shader assigned. Supports normal and parallax mapping, specular and dynamic lighting with bloom and glow, environment-mapped and planar reflections/refractions, and post-process effects.
• Loading of md2/md3/md5/obj/smd/iqm models for skeletal and vertex animated characters, weapons, items, and world objects. Supports animation blending, procedural pitch animation, and ragdoll physics for skeletally-animated characters.
• Simple stereo positional sound system.
• Particle engine, supporting text particles, volumetric explosions, soft particles, and decals.
• 3d menu/gui system, for in-world representation of choices.
