QuakeLanes is a Quake 4 mod made for IT266 - Game Mod Development at the New Jersey Institute of Technology
This is a mod inspired by games like Inscryption and Adventure Time's Card Wars.
This mod replaces the combat in quake with a lane-fighting card game!
*This mod, as well as this readme, is a work in progress
QuakeLanes was designed from the beginning with the intent of keeping the entirety of Quake 4 playable. The story and maps are all unchanged. The only aspect of Quake 4 I wanted to change was the combat. When the player gives or recieves damage, the card game begins with the inflictor of the damage moving first. In between each turn, every played card attacks the lane across from them. Your goal is to bring all of the oppononent's card's healths down to zero. If you can do this, all of the enemies die in the game and you can move on to the next ones. If, however, all of your cards get reduced to 0 health, the enemies around you that took part in the game still die, but you alsolose 1/4th of your health. This means that after 4 losses, you are dead, and must return to the beginning of the game.
In order to play this mod, you will need to download and install the completed mod folder from here. Clone this repo into your Quake 4 folder, run the game, and select the mod in the mod selection gui.
If you wish to view the mod's code and/or edit it, you can clone this repository and open the .sln file with whatever version of Visual Studio you want (The solution should open properly on Visual Studio 2013 and later).
