Other Games Official Arcade Info/Guide (01/03/2018)

[FluffyRoses]

~Special thanks @StorySays for all the Banners <3
Arcade is a game here on Cubecraft where you are able to play an array of fast-paced, team-based gamemodes that test your reflexes and strategies to the extreme!

There are six gamemodes which will be covered:
Line Dash
Wing Rush
Spleef
Paintball
Slime Survival
Quake Craft

Balancing
Team game modes don’t allow the game to start until there are similar or balanced teams, this is to prevent the game starting with unbalanced teams, such as a 1 v 4.​

 

[FluffyRoses]

Line dash is a port of the popular seasonal game "Snow Down". Line Dash has elements of this mixed with Tron. The objective of the game is to run around while leaving a trail behind you and wipe out other players who also have trails, and be the last team standing, but be careful not to run into their trails. There are three teams: Red, Green, and Light Blue, with a maximum of twelve players, there are four people on a team. Once there are three players left the borders start to shrink and limit the space.


How to Play
Eliminate the other team by trying to get them to cross your trail, you can collect power ups to help eliminate the other teams. Don’t cross over the other team's colour trail otherwise you will be eliminated!

Spoiler: Techniques

Techniques

Different ways to survive or utilization of the different power ups in Line Dash to help you reign supreme, I will be showing you the different techniques you can use in order to win;


TNT Lasso
Circle a player and trap them in a small inescapable circle of trail and fire a TNT into the center of the circle to explode your way to victory.


Panic Button
If you are hit with a flash bang create a small circle around yourself with the little vision you have and sit inside the circle, unless this is early game you should be able to sit there until it runs out without the trail catching up. This does however make you vulnerable to ‘TNT Lasso’.


Speed Drift
Obtain a Speed II power up and chase somebody, once you reach the front of them quickly hit a left turn and swerve into their view.


Storage Leap
Keep a hold of a leap when you get in case of dangerous circumstances e.g when the border has crept in and you can get stuck easily or if you have been TNT Lasso’d you can jump the trap.


Ender Wall
Ender pearl to the front of someone, as soon as you teleported create a long line and block them off, this requires extremely accurate and can be quite difficult to land.

Nice thread, I guess people don't have to spam "how to play?" in every game after this.

 

[Gainfullterror]

(I'm not sure about this, but did you want this locked so it stayed a guide and stuff? anyways, I'll take the opportunity and say this: Could you lay out the power ups list so there's two lines between a power up description and the next power up? it looks kind of weird otherwise if there's a constant single line skip. It also seems that some of the slime survival power ups have an odd double space going in between the power up and its description)

Here's a few slime survival sidetasks that I know exist (there are a few others):
Human
Freeze a slime with a frost sword
Freeze two slimes with a frost sword
Trap a slime with the slime trap power up
Have a decoy alive for 30 seconds
Revive 2 paralyzed players (Freeze tag) (might be a slightly different name)

Slime
Paralyze 5 survivors (Freeze tag)
Hit a player with a slime that has bounced off of a wall
Kill two players with the slime bomb
