I learned about when you kept coming in #gloom and saying you were making a Q3 mod that would never came out. I suppose all that negative redicule created something addictive.

I found out of this game when I was browsing the most popular 'new technic magazine' of Finland, MikroBitti (www.mikrobitti.fi), and in the games section of the magazine I saw Tremulous shining at the position of "Game of the Month". And what took my curiosity was that I saw that this game was a modification from Q3A, which I play also, the most.
I quoted the text from word to word. :) (of course, translated into english first ;) )

Quote from MikroBitti, MB (c) Magazine:
"Game of the Month"
QuoteTremulous
Originally Quake III Arena modification released Tremulous is a team based game which connects impressively realtime strategy into a FPS game. Players can either choose to be a spacemarine or an squishy alien, and both teams mission is a complete elimination of the opposing force. Battles are long and bloody, because it also requires to destroy enemy structures to win. Unlike all else internet FPS games, Tremulous requires a very good teamplaying from it's players. Protecting life vital buildings is more important than gathering points in the scoreboard, and it's more effective to proceed with a team than alone. The experience points gained from kills can be used to buy new weapons or improve to a greater alien.

Newgrounds. Some guy wanted to start a big Newgrounds Tremulous battle, and I followed the link provided to the site, and thought it was cool, so I downloaded it.

From the forums of another mod for another game I play. There are several others who came from here, too.

Good ol' Word of mouth for me. Then again, some of the devs used to frequent IRC channels related to gloom, and would keep us regulated.

A Finnish site (mbnet.fi) which shows free games and programs found from internet. Ofcourse a small word which was "free" gave a small kick for trying this.

None of the above. I saw it on the Apple website (http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/games/action_adventure/tremulous.html)
've watched while the stars burned out, and creation played in reverse. The universe freezing in half light. Once I thought to escape. To end the end a master, step out of the path of collapse. Escape would make me god.
