RedEclipse 1.0 Released, Based Upon Cube 2 Engine

Posted by Michael Larabel on March 15, 2011

Several readers have written in this morning to mention the release of RedEclipse 1.0. RedEclipse is the successor to the Blood Frontier game and it's built upon the famous Cube 2 Engine.

The game is self described as:
Red Eclipse is a Free and Open Source game, using SDL and OpenGL which allows it to be ported to many platforms; grab a development copy from our Subversion repository and live on the bleeding edge.

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.

It's available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux/BSD. It can be downloaded at RedEclipse.net.
