<h1>About</h1>

|
||
<p>
|
||
AssaultCube is a total conversion of <a href="http://strlen.com" target="_blank">Wouter van Oortmerssen´s</a> FPS called
|
||
<a href="http://cubeengine.com" target="_blank">Cube</a>. AssaultCube encourages players from all platforms to play by
|
||
being multi-platform (Available on: Windows, Linux and OSX), <a href="#license">partially open-source</a> and low on system
|
||
and networking requirements. It is set in a realistic looking environment (as best that's possible with this engine) while
|
||
gameplay stays fast and arcade. This game is all about team oriented, multi-player fun.
