Game modes

Seven ways to play.

Every mode runs on the same engine: health, ammo clips and reserves, lives,
respawns, friendly fire – all set in a few taps.

Free For All

Everyone against everyone. Kill limits, lives, the whole game on every phone.

Team Deathmatch

2 to 6 teams with their own colours, bases and team voice channel.

Domination

Own control points inside or outside GPS zones. The team with more players inside takes the point.

Battle Royale

A shrinking zone in four phases, five hazards, supply drops. Last one standing wins.

Capture the Flag

Grab the enemy flag at their base and carry it home – the classic, GPS-tracked.

Conquest

Take the field point by point along a front line. Earn your ground as your team advances.

Running Man

One runner against all hunters. The runner’s score is time-based and only grows while he keeps moving.

Spotlight · Battle Royale

The zone is closing.

A real battle royale on a real field. The safe zone appears after a calm start and shrinks in four announced phases – every circle off-center, so nobody camps the middle.

  • Five hazards – fire, radiation, cold, poison or storm, each with its own animated map overlay.
  • Supply drops land as virtual loot boxes on the map – first one there takes it.
  • Voice calls the zone: “New zone marked”, “The zone is shrinking”.

On the blaster

Read it at a glance.

The phone sits on your blaster. Big gauges, your team on the map, and everything else through vibration, sound and voice – so your eyes stay on the field.

  • Live map with your position and your team only – the server never sends enemy positions.
  • Push-to-talk team voice with the blaster’s own walkie-talkie button. Offline, over Wi-Fi.
  • 12 weapon profiles from the blaster firmware: plasma charge, burst, full auto, sniper charge.
  • Grenades – the official Recoil frag grenade counts, owner gets the kill.
  • Hit direction lights up the side you were hit from, then a respawn countdown.

Game master

Run the game from a tablet.

Put a tablet on the table and it becomes the game server and the big screen: the
whole map, every player’s health and score, a live kill feed and a broadcast button to
talk to everyone.

Under the hood

Built for the field, not the cloud.

Offline first

One phone, a tablet or a Raspberry Pi hosts the game on local Wi-Fi. Phones find it automatically.

Stats & skill rating

Accuracy, streaks, hits per minute, heat maps of hits and movement. Persistent profiles and player ratings.

Auto team balancing

One tap splits the lobby into fair teams by skill. Move players by hand if you like.

Standalone server

Docker image for ARM64 and x86_64, autostart with systemd, remote control (RCON) for the field.

Online sync – optional

Sync statistics and ratings across fields when you have internet. Off by default.

Designs

Pick a look – Nova, Inferno, Signal, Ember. Team colours stay the same on every phone.

6 team colours – Orange, Blue, Green, Purple, Pink, Yellow
