Adrenaline, the new multiplayer top-down shooter by OL and Bryan, is a very fun game. It did cause other applications and processes on my computer to lag, but it is a very addictive game. There is some blood, but it can be turned off. The game can be downloaded at the Reflect Forums, if you want a direct link, it is http://forums.reflectgames.com/viewtopic.php?t=1312 . You do need a Reflect account to play the game.

Key Points

Mines - use these to your advantage, block of other players from your area

Grenades - if there is a big battle, throw a few of these and see what trouble they cause

Laser - very powerful weapon, but not a whole lot of ammo, use with care

Launcher - extremely powerful weapon, but very little ammo, use with care

Strategy

The way that I was playing, and getting around twenty points for most of the matches I played (which is close to owning right now), was this. Every time that I spawned, I dropped a mine in a semi-strategic location. Use the mines to help you block of a little area of your own, but you do want to be able to shoot out from it. If there is a battle going on somewhere (two or more players), then toss a few grenades in that direction and see what happens. The laser and the rocket are pretty powerful weapons, but they are also a little low on ammo, so if you get these, use them to your advantages, but with care. Try to always move, and if you see some grenades flying your way, don't be there when they land.
