Red Eclipse is a free arena shooter by Quinton Reeves and Lee Salzman. Movement is the main skill: parkour, impulse boosts, and dashing sit alongside arena combat.

The F7 Insight

Most arena shooters ask you to aim first. Red Eclipse asks you to arrive first, then aim. That parkour-led pace, plus a cooperative map editor, makes it a strong find for players who want a match they can also reshape.
