Our take on Potentia
Instead of treating movement as a way to traverse fixed arenas, Potentia makes propulsion part of combat. Its grenade launcher can turn walls and surfaces into launch points, while also displacing opponents, so positioning becomes an active weapon choice rather than only a defensive concern.
What is Potentia?
Potentia is a multiplayer sci-fi arena shooter focused on fast combat and vertical movement.
Players can use a shoulder-mounted movement grenade launcher to push themselves from walls and surfaces, cross the map, or knock opponents away. Level layouts provide elevated routes and multiple ways to use cover and weapons. The arsenal includes an assault rifle, shotgun, SMG, plasma crossbow, DMR, plasma rifle, and railgun. Weapons vary by range, spread, recoil, damage, projectile speed, and firing behavior. The plasma rifle regenerates ammunition when not firing, while the railgun charges before releasing a high-damage shot. Matches are intended for play with friends.
