CodeRED: Alien Arena, the free online deathmatch game has been released for Linux. This opensourced project based on the Quake II source features standard deathmatch, team deathmatch, Capture the Flag, and the new All Out Assault Mode(players can climb into vehicles). The Linux port uses the new 4.01 version of the CRX engine, featuring new eye candy such as light blooms, multitexture combine, real-time dynamic vertex lighting, glass objects, reflective water, textured particle effects and much more. The game features an in-game server browser that queries the master server. Players can play online against each other, or in a tournament against the bots, which feature advanced combat techniques such as dodging and rocket jumping, all in a polished, eerie retro sci-fi atmosphere.

The game features 20 maps, including 4 CTF, 2 All Out Assault, and 3 1v1 tournament maps, 9 detailed player models, and 9 weapons of mass destruction ranging from the standard phaser pistol all the way up to the devastating Alien Vaporizer.
