Type of Mod: Team Based Multiplayer

Teams: Gargantua's & Robot's

Description: Gargarena is a teamplay multiplayer mod for Half-Life, where the players play as smaller, younger versions of the Gargantua(basically because of player "skeleton" limitations) and as robots.

After the invasion at the Black Mesa Research Facility, scientist began research on defences. The scientists knew that more aliens would arrive very soon, so they had to work quick. They did research on lots of different theories, and came to the conclusion that it might be better not to fight against the aliens at all, but let "something else" do it for them.

One scientist, came with a brilliant idea. His name was Walter, and it was his intention to use robots! Since they already knew much about computer programming, they started immediately working on the programming work. While they were doing that, the military helped them out giving them the materials they needed to build the robots. After a few days, the first prototypes were made and fully tested.

It was a success and the scientists worked hard on making more, better robots. Each robot has different abilities and can all be controlled by the scientists from a distance. Now, after several weeks, the Black Mesa ruins were invaded again!

Despite the fact that they were ready for the invasion, they never anticipated the vast numbers of gargantuan beasts that arrived.

It's now up to the player to choose sides! Humanity's robo-gargs, or the Xenian Gargantuas.

FLAMETHROWER This is the main weapon of the game. It works best at short/medium range. NB: Using the flamethrower causes the player to heat up. Once the heat bar is full damage is taken.

STOMP ATTACK This attack creates a shockwave, that will do damage at close range. It produces no heat and is a powerful attack that can hurt many players at once. NB: No heat is produced by this attack.

LASER VISION This is the long range weapon of the game. The primary attack is a quick firing laser, which does minimal splash damage. The secondary attack is slow to charge and can cause devastating damage. It is a larger laser pulse that is enough to almost destroy a garg. But it blinds you temporarily. NB: Using the primary attack does not cause the player to heat up. The secondary attack fills half the heat bar.

STICKY FOG GRENADE Not so much a grenade, but it's difficult to describe. It fires an organic missile which sticks to any wall it hits. Then it releases a gas fog, which does slow damage and also blinds the player. It also works as a handy way to provide cover. NB: There is no heat produced by this weapon.

REGENERATION This allows the player to slowly regenerate health or coolant. The lower the value, the faster it will rise. NB: There is no heat produced by function.

As decided by the map you play, you can eitehr play a simple Team Deathmatch. The team with the most kills at the end of the map wins.

Or the map will be mission based in which you need to achieve an objective. This can be either reaching the end of a maze, or completing tasks. Both versions of mission based maps have time limits.
