Instagib Tournament is a cross-platform player-versus-player game world where you have to frag opponents atop three opposing skyscrapers.

Gameplay

Equipped with a gun that shoots lasers the goal is for each player to hit other players or bots. Each hit counts as a point and the player with the most points after the time limit wins the match. The gun can only shoot once a second with a focus on aiming precisely and each player has an outline that shows where a hit registers.

Source material

Instagib Tournament's arena is a near-replica of DM-Morpheus from Unreal Tournament 1999, a map with three skyscrapers towering towards outer space.

Instagib is a mutator in all Unreal Tournament games, which equips the player with a super shock rifle that frags enemies with a single shot. This weapon is so insanely powerful that it turns enemies instantly into "giblets". All other weapons and powerups are removed from the match. Instagib is mostly used in deathmatch and capture the flag gametypes. This mutator can also be found in other games like Quake.

Liandri Mining Corporation knew they had found an excellent arena at the very top of a newly constructed Galaxyscraper SuperStructure. Thanks to the modern miracle of super tensile solids, these three buildings reach a staggering 12 miles high at their pinnacle. The thin atmosphere and reduced influence of Earth's gravity provide an interesting test of the tournament athete's ability to adapt and conquer in extreme environments.
