Summary
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. Other structures provide automated base defense (to some degree), healing functions and much more...
Player advancement is different depending on which team you are on. As a human, players are rewarded with credits for each alien kill. These credits may be used to purchase new weapons and upgrades from the "Armoury". The alien team advances quite differently. Upon killing a human foe, the alien is able to evolve into a new class. The more kills gained the more powerful the classes available.
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.
Feature List
* Flexible particle system - 99% of the in-game visual effects are configured using particle scripts.
* 16 buildable structures with in-game functions.
* Play as several alien classes with unique abilities.
* Customize your setup as a human and buy new weapons, armour and items.
* Scale the walls and ceilings as an alien waiting for an unsuspecting human.
* Realistic physics and motion - no bunny hopping or quick back peddling.
* Flexible map system - animated mapobjects, triggering, light flares, etc.
* Large weapons system - don't like the weapon you have? Sell it and buy a different one, dozens of options.

| Quoting evilhomer | | wow gr8 game 2 play but bit complicated 2 learn how 2 play at first |
I felt just like that when i started playing but now i can get 5 kills in 5 or 10 minutes on both species
| Quoting Tremulous faq | Q: OMG YOU STOLED NS!!!1!
A: No. Development on Tremulous began long before NS was in the public domain. If Tremulous is inspired by anything, it is inspired by Gloom for Quake 2. NS has a similar ancestry (please see Game Developer Magazine February 2001 issue); this is probably where the confusion arises. This answer is not intended to be a sleight against NS in any way, shape, or form, only this "observation" comes up a lot, and it becomes frustrating to answer the same thing over and over again.
