There is not much to be said about the game: you ride a lightcycle, a kind of motorbike that can't be stopped and leaves a wall where it goes. You can make turns of 90 degrees and can accelerate by driving close to walls. Make your enemies hit a wall while avoiding the same fate.

BeamTron features: diagonal movement and grid curving, with smooth 4-player gameplay.

Though not as visually detailed as Lightcycles: GGoC, this is a great game. Includes full multiplayer support for internet and LAN games.
You steer a futuristic bike, called lightcycle. Combat takes place in a rectangular arena. Your bike leaves a trail behind, which is like a wall. The goal is to force the other players to drive into a wall. The winner is the last player alive. Well, as the name suggests, it's inspired by the movie TRON. Or more exactly, by all the games that where inspired by the movie TRON.
From The Author: So why do an almost identical game? Well, apart from the fact that you can never have enough Lightcycles games (in my opinion, I'm - kind of selfishly - writing this for my own pleasure above anyone else's... A: Because I wanted a good project to learn Dark Basic with, and B: Because I've never been satisfied with the AI in many of the Lightcycles games I've played so far - the computer players never really seem to actively come after you. So I wanted to see if I could create a game with a feel and excitement similar to that of the sequence in the Tron movie and for that, I want it to look and sound as close to the movie as possible too.
TS Notes: This is by far the best to date imho. -Auric
This is a 3D clone of the classic tron/lightcycles game that's been around for ages. If you have seen the movie called Tron, you probably remember the scene with the lightcycles - vehicles speeding around in a large arena leaving trails behind. This game puts you in control of such a vehicle. The goal of the game is simple - play, have fun and stay alive as long as possible.
The basic game idea of the Tron lightcycle game is that you drive a fast futuristic bike, called lightcycle. It leaves a wall where it goes, so the arena turns into a labyrinth after some time. The goal is to force the enemies to hit a wall while you should try to avoid this for yourself, of course. The last player alive is the winner.
