DUST

A tactical shooter for the web, built to feel like the classic 5v5 defusal games: realistic gunplay, a 24-weapon buy menu, a full economy, and burst sliding. Pure static files, nothing to install, no internet connection needed, LAN multiplayer included, and Play Together from Engage.

Dust is Engage's edition of Cla-Go by Kwusv55 (formerly published as Sandstorm). Every texture, sound and model is still made in code.

What's new in Dust

• 24 weapons: Glock-18, USP-S, P250, Tec-9, Five-SeveN, Desert Eagle, MAC-10, MP9, UMP-45, Nova, Galil AR, FAMAS, AK-47, M4A4, SG 553, AUG, SSG 08, AWP, two knives, three grenades and the C4, each with its own model, recoil pattern and sound. The AUG and SG 553 have a rifle optic; the Nova fires nine pellets and reloads shell by shell.
• Reloads you can see: the magazine tilts out and falls to the floor (and stays there), the fresh one comes up in the left hand, the bolt or slide is released on an empty gun, snipers cycle the bolt by hand, the Nova is pumped after every shot and loaded one shell at a time. Draw, inspect (with a mag check on rifles) and shell ejection match the action.
• Characters: legs follow the direction of travel while the torso turns to the aim, feet have their own joints, hits rock the upper body, and both sides carry more kit: plate carriers with magazines, helmets with mounts and chin straps, keffiyeh wraps, holsters, elbow and knee pads, faces with eyes.
• Graphics: a time of day (noon, dawn, dusk) with its own sun, sky, fog and environment light; sharper shadows that follow you; a sun flare; muzzle gas and bullet-strike light; brick, striped awning and rug materials; rooftop parapets, water tanks, antennas and air conditioners; market stalls, tire stacks, rubble, posters and oil stains in the streets.
• Quality of life: damage numbers, a kill banner with multi-kill calls, weapon icons in the kill feed, weapon bar and buy menu, a weapon stat card in the buy menu, re-buy last round's kit with R, a death summary of the damage you dealt, ADR and HS% on the scoreboard, a round history strip, match length (first to 9 / 13 / 16) and friendly fire on the menu, teammate health bars and view cones on the radar, a T-style crosshair option.

Getting started

Double-click index.html (latest Edge / Chrome recommended) and click "Play". The mouse is locked and the game goes fullscreen on click. Press Esc to pause (hold Esc to leave fullscreen).

Fullscreen is needed for the browser's "keyboard lock": only in fullscreen can a page capture browser shortcuts such as Ctrl+W and Ctrl+D. Without it, Ctrl to crouch plus a movement key can trigger a browser shortcut and steal pointer lock (it looks like pressing Esc: the pause menu pops up). If you do not want fullscreen, turn off "Fullscreen + keyboard lock" under Settings → Mouse & Movement and crouch with C instead.

LAN multiplayer

Play with a roommate or classmates on the same WiFi (versus each other, or on the same team against bots):

1. On one computer, install Node.js (the LTS version is fine) and double-click start-lan-server.cmd. On macOS / Linux, run node server/server.js instead. On first run Windows asks for administrator approval to open the port in the firewall; click "Yes". The window shows the multiplayer address, for example http://192.168.1.5:8080.
2. Everyone opens that address in a browser (the computer running the server can also use http://localhost:8080).
3. One player clicks "Multiplayer" → "Host Room" to become the host; the others click "Multiplayer" → "Join Room".
4. In the lobby, pick your side (the same side means co-op against bots). The host chooses the mode and clicks "Start Match". Empty slots on each team are filled with bots.

• Team Deathmatch and Demolition are supported. The host's computer simulates the whole match (bots, damage, economy, C4); everyone else only needs a browser.
• Your own movement is computed locally, so it never feels laggy. Shots are judged by the host against what you saw on your screen (lag compensation).
• If you drop out or quit mid-match, go back to the lobby and click "Join Match in Progress" to return. The match keeps running if the host switches windows.
• If you cannot connect, check in order: are both computers on the same WiFi, is the server window still open, and does a campus / hotel WiFi block device-to-device traffic (AP isolation)? A phone hotspot works around that.
• If the port is taken, pick another one: node server/server.js 8090 --firewall.
• The online demo page (HTTPS) cannot do multiplayer, because browsers do not let HTTPS pages connect to a LAN server.

Modes

Mode	Description
Demolition	5v5 rounds with an economy. Attackers plant the C4, Defenders defuse it. First to 9, 13 or 16 wins; sides switch at the half
Team Deathmatch	Instant respawn, free weapon swaps for 20 seconds after spawning, first to 50 kills
Firing Range	Unlimited ammo, moving targets, live speed / spread / recoil index readout on the right

Bot skill: Recruit / Veteran / Elite / Cosmic (reaction time, tracking, recoil control, headshot rate and sliding frequency all rise step by step). Bots slide while traveling, rotating, retaking sites and when they meet an enemy.

Telling sides apart: Defenders wear dark blue-grey uniforms with a black vest and helmet and a blue armband; Attackers wear sand-colored clothes with a brown chest rig and a dark red headscarf over the face, and an orange armband. Teammates get a side-colored marker and name overhead; when your crosshair is on a visible enemy, a red "Enemy Name" appears below it.
