01 / WHY I BUILT IT

I LOVED
INSTAGIB.

“I loved Unreal Tournament. I loved Instagib.”

This game is a tribute to that original feeling when arena shooters were in their prime: extremely fast, slightly chaotic, but somehow everything felt right. Movement, jumps and strafes clicked instantly.

It was easy to start and brutally hard to master. SAGORAX is my attempt to capture that feeling again—not as a museum piece, but as a new game with modern light, speed and weight.

BUILT TO GET
YOU MOVING.

Breakbeats, distorted synths and late-90s electronic pressure. The soundtrack is not background decoration—it pushes the countdown, sharpens the next dodge and makes “one more match” feel inevitable.

05 / UNDER THE ARMOUR

BUILT FOR
THE FIGHT.
NOT THE BENCHMARK.

SAGORAX is a game first. Underneath, it is built entirely with Three.js and WebGPU, with every technical choice serving clear aim, fast movement and atmosphere.

01

THREE.JS + WEBGPU

A modern browser renderer powering the whole arena, from the first menu frame to the last frag.

02

SMART PERFORMANCE

FSR 3, adaptive resolution and careful level optimisation protect fluid play without flattening the world.

03

WEATHER WITH WEIGHT

Rain hits wet stone, torchlight moves over old walls and reflections turn every arena into a place with a mood.

04

MOVEMENT COMES FIRST

Every visual system yields to the thing that matters most: immediate aim, sharp dodges and momentum you can feel.

06 / LIVE TELEMETRY

THE ARENA

07 / BEFORE YOU SPAWN

STRAIGHT
ANSWERS.

No launcher, no enormous install and no maze of unlocks. This public trial is built to get you from the homepage to your first frag as quickly as the browser allows.

WHAT IS SAGORAX ARENA?

A free browser-based arena FPS inspired by the speed and movement feel of classic UT99 and UT2k4 combat. Classic Weapons Deathmatch is the default; dedicated Instagib remains one click away.

IS THE WEAPON LOADOUT BALANCED?

Yes. Plasma, Shotgun, Flak and Rockets are tuned as one competitive set: each dominates a different range, alternate fire changes its tactical role and arena ammo prevents mindless spam.

WHAT DO I NEED TO PLAY?

A desktop or laptop, a keyboard and mouse, and a modern WebGPU-compatible browser. The game caches unchanged assets after your first visit, so returning is much faster.

IS THIS MULTIPLAYER?

The current public trial is a single-player deathmatch against bots with persistent accounts, match history and leaderboards. Full multiplayer is planned for a later phase.

WHO IS BUILDING THIS?

SAGORAX is an independent passion project, shaped by years of loving Instagib and the particular movement, music and atmosphere that made classic arena shooters unforgettable.
