Tribal Races
[SIZE="-2"]By: Joker(Div)[/size]

Overview:

This is a 1 on 1 race where you must go through many things and kill the Eye at the center of the map. You will control 4 heroes, but only 1 at a time. You will receive a new hero at each checkpoint. I suppose it's a mini-game. Sreenies at the bottom.
​

General Info:

Map Size: Small
Max Players: 8
Type: Race
Pace: Generally fast
​

Features:

• 8 Heroes
• 32 Abilities
• 33 Items
• 7 Conditions
• Many effects
• 3 Modes
• Remake function in case of leavers on tag team

Conditions:

What are conditions? If you have played Rising_Dusk's "Desert of Exile", this is a similar setup. Easiest way to explain is through an example. Say there's fireball that hits you. If you get hit by a fire, you would be burning, no? The burning is a condition. Many items that you may choose from are aids for these conditions. There are 7 in this game:

1. Bleeding - 10 dps, lowers ms by 25%, lasts 10 seconds
2. Burning - 20 dps, lasts 10 seconds
3. Freezing - 15 dps, restricts movement, lasts 6 seconds
4. Haunted - lowers armor by 6, may not respond to commands, lasts 6 seconds
5. Confused - causes unit to move in random directions, misses 50% of attacks, lasts 6 seconds
6. Stunned - same as blizzards, lasts 3 seconds
7. Paralyzed - shocks the unit 5 times, loses 20 mana every shock, lasts 10 seconds

Modes:

1v1: Not really a mode, but you can play a Bo1, Bo3, or a Bo5.

Tournament: Brackets are randomly drawn as byes are randomly given if there is a mess up number of players. It is single elimination. You are allowed to watch even if you have lost.

Tag Team: Players will be divided up into 2. This mode will not be available if there is an odd number of players. Each member on the team will run through the course once. The team that gets all of their members through wins.

Other:

Honestly, this is just a practice map for me that's going to help me start my new project. I'm hoping it gets some attention, but the gameplay, I'm not expecting it to go far. I got too lazy while creating this, and it didn't turn out as good as I would have hoped.

Here's an open source beta. (yeah, I do some wierd things) Requires NewGen I would assume.

Expected Release Date: October 19, 2008
