This is a single-player modification for the classic shooter, Quake, released on June 16, 2023, for PC (Microsoft Windows). It introduces a fresh layer of movement-based mechanics, offering new challenges and expanding the possibilities for level design within the familiar Quake engine. The core experience revolves around mastering these new traversal tools to navigate intricate environments and overcome obstacles.

What is the core gameplay experience?

The modification focuses on enhancing player mobility, transforming how one interacts with the game world. Instead of relying solely on traditional movement, players are equipped with innovative tools that redefine exploration and combat encounters. This creates a distinct gameplay loop centered on skillful execution of these new mechanics.

Revolutionary Movement Mechanics

At the heart of this modification are three key movement-based features:

Trampolines

These allow for death-defying leaps, enabling players to cross vast gaps and chasms that would otherwise be impassable. They introduce a vertical dimension to traversal, requiring precise timing and aiming.

Wiremeshes

Gravity becomes less of a constraint with wiremeshes. These surfaces function as more than just ladders, permitting movement up, down, sideways, and even hanging from ceilings. This opens up complex pathways and strategic positioning opportunities.

Lighthooks and Lightpanels

The lighthook is a photonic tool that instantly latches onto any visible lightpanel, regardless of distance. This mechanic provides rapid, long-range traversal and can be used for quick repositioning or reaching distant objectives.

What kind of content is available?

This modification does not feature any downloadable content (DLCs), expansions, or remakes. The available content is contained within the core modification itself, focusing on the implementation of its unique movement mechanics within the Quake framework.

How does this modification relate to the parent game?

As a modification, it builds upon the foundation of the original Quake. It leverages the existing engine and core shooter mechanics while introducing entirely new ways to interact with the environment. This allows players familiar with Quake to experience a significantly altered gameplay dynamic.
