Afterwards
sourcecode - GameBub mirror
AFTERWARDS is a total conversion for QuakeIII Arena.n AFTWEARDS you can use various different weapons to frag your enemies. For example shotguns, assaultguns, flamethrowers, prototype plasma weapons and many more. Like in real life, you have to reload your weapons from time to time and they are much more accurate if you stand still and do not run around like a fool. In "tactical" mode you can choose a new weapon, depending on your rank.

Freeze Tag
sourcecode - GameBub mirror
In Freeze Tag you try to eliminate the entire enemy team. If you kill someone then they will become frozen. So to eliminate all, you'd need to freeze everyone, making them all frozen at the same time. This will give your team a point and the round will start over again. If you are ever frozen, a teammate can come rescue you by standing next to your icy body for three seconds. You'll then be set free and can join the battle again.
