Move around and earn points by hitting and destroying enemy ships. All ships respawn as long as their respective bases haven't been destroyed. Once only one ship is left, the game ends. Then awards are passed out based on performance. (worth 500 points apiece) Highest scorer wins!
The Arena is a space-ship arcade game. Destroy other ships with 5 bullet types and mines! Choose a ship and base according to your preferences, then blast the enemies to smitherines!
Gameplay is similar to that of Worms! in that you must destroy other players, and different weapons are available.
This game was mostly a learning experience for me about basic networking and AI techniques. Enjoy!
