Paintball is a game for ZX Spectrum NEXT!
This is a fast-paced top-down arcade game. Choose one of five arenas, grab the flag in the middle of the field and carry it back to your cyan base. Two computer-controlled opponents are trying to take the same flag to their magenta base.
Game rules
- A team scores by carrying the flag to its own base.
- The first team to score three points wins the match.
- Tagging an opponent does not score a point. A tagged character returns to play after a short delay.
- A tagged flag carrier drops the flag where they were hit.
- The edge indicator points towards the flag, and its colour identifies the current carrier.
- Your magazine holds six paintballs and reloads automatically when empty.
- You have three paint grenades per match. Each grenade tags players in a larger area.
- The tactical sprint uses energy, which gradually recharges.
- The golden shield refills sprint energy and protects you from hits for five seconds. It respawns later.
