Trepidation

Trepidation is an open source first person shooter based on the IOQuake3 engine.  Trepidation was a project originally conceived  with the intent to build a free first person shooter with a sci-fi theme.  The idea was initially developed by members of the Star Trek Elite Force gaming community.  We aim to have a game that runs well even on older machines that is fast paced and fun to play.

The game includes:

• 18 multiplayer levels (maps).  
• Quake 3 and Star Trek Voyager Elite Force Map Compatibility.
• An original soundtrack featuring 10 original tracks.

• Instagib Modifier Available On Most Game Modes.
• Build defensive Gun Turrets in capture the flag.
• Random Map Rotations
• New features for Level Designers.
