Overview
Armchair Bomber is a game of tactics and destruction. Players must run around a maze of destructable scenery, placing bombs in an attempt to destroy their opponent. Along the way several collectable power ups increase the destructive power of the player, enhancing their abilities to enable them to outmaneuver their opponents. Bombs become stronger, players become faster, opponents become dazzled, all in the name of all that is good and destructable. Armchair Bomber 2 is designed to be a progressive project. Currently the core mechanics of the game are being developed and extensively tested before they are built upon for multiple game modes (including capture the flag, base bombardment and king of the hill) and improved graphics. On first release, the mod will be multiplayer only, with fun gameplay and a unique style and feel. A single player mode is currently in the planning phase, and development will begin once the multiplayer aspect is in full swing.

History
Armchair Bomber 1, sadly now lost in the midst of history and HDD reformats, was devised by [ICR] and his brother. It was hacked and buggy, and a bug that made the game crash after a minute or so of play forced development to stop. After a false start using the Irrlicht engine, it is now being redone from scratch, with the benifit of all that was learnt from the previous incarnations.
