Ethernaut |
'The stars danced mockingly, almost shifting now and then to form pale signs of doom that one might wonder one had not seen and feared before; and ever the winds of ether howled of vague blackness and loneliness beyond the cosmos.'
- H. P. Lovecraft, 'The Dream-Quest Of Unknown Kaddath' Built and released during the last few days of QExpo 2001.

Known Problems: dying in the ether inflicts a heavy impact on players which carries over into the respawn; should you be unlucky enough to suffer such an ignominious death, it is advisable to wait a second or two for your gibs to fall before respawning, as a few of the spawn points place you near the precipice. |
