Instant Action

Post by Caleb1117 »

Hey guys, about 3 days ago, a friend of mine, sent me a link to this site, called Instant Action, and I just loved it.

Instant Action is a site that contains (currently) 4 free, 3D, browser based games, and another, soon to be in public beta.
You just sign up, with username, password, and a email address, and you are ready to play, you don't have to wait for email verification either.
You do have to download some game data for each, and the time required will vary based on your connection, but it took me only about 5 minutes for each.

Games are:
Think Tank - Multiplayer 3rd person tank combat, with 3 tank classes, and mutable powerups, with FFA assault modes, and even FFA or team based CTF.
Marble Blast - Really fun, simple game where you roll your marble around the maps, competing with other players to get the most gems.
Screw Jumper - Not sure how to describe this... kinda like a 3d pitfall, I stink at it so...
Cyclomite - have not played this, but its supposed to be a sort of color oriented puzzle, like Gems or Bust a Move.

Soon to come:
Fallen Empire: Legions - First person Mecha combat. :o

I've heard some of it is moddable, too, like skins, etc, though I have yet to find the game data directorys.

That tank game was fun, but I kept driving off the cliff.

Ooh, sweet find! I'm waiting for my confirmation e-mail to arrive, and then I can play! I'll be Rekubot on it, for the sake of originality. :P

Edit: Hmm, the lag is terrible. Does anyone else have that problem?

Clicky!
So someone figured out how to get 3D games to run well in a browser. So cool. Basically, this site is free to play, and offers several in-browser 3D games. I highly recommend it.

Oh bugga. It would appear I cannot play Instant Action...or at least the tank game, which is the only game I wanted to play. Every time I tried to join a game, my computer would completely freeze up.
