Gloom is probably the most advanced Quake II TC ever, by Team Reaction. Since the last RXN release of version 1.2, I have taken over the coding and general maintenance of the mod, which is now at version 1.3. The basis of the game is a team of human marines fighting alien
spiders in a wide array of scenarios, usually in dark settings. Each side has 8 classes including a builder class that is able to set up base
defences and team spawn points. Every time you kill an enemy you get frags to 'spend' on a better class. Spider classes
range from the lowly 20 health but deadly hatchling to the monolithic stalker that obliterates everything it its path.
Humans start out as a grunt and can work their way up to a mechanized unit with dual autocannons. Gloom features all-custom
models, maps, sounds and gameplay. This won't feel like the Quake II you are used to.
Here are some screenshots taken during a game on the "Reinforcements at Base Nova" map.

| An exterminator patrols a vent exit...

| A mech arrives to provide cover.

| Nothing like a nice C4 to finish the aliens off.
