''Attack Retrieve Capture'' (ARC) was a free multiplayer, 2D computer game created by John Vechey (jv) and Brian Fiete (bf) as a college project and later published by Hoopy Entertainment in 1995. The game was primarily capture the flag (CTF), but other game modes existed. In the 2-team CTF mode, each team tried to capture the other's flag(s). Players piloted small ships equipped with 4 types of weapons: lasers, missiles, bouncy lasers, and grenades. ==History== Initially ARC was hosted on a server rented out by Hoopy at Ulink.net, an internet service provider in Sacramento, California. Clients ran it via HFront (Hoopy Front End), a program downloaded to serve as the game to support multiplayer mode. The original developers of ARC, John Vechey (jv) and Brian Fiete (bf), took ARC to Total Entertainment Network (TEN) (now pogo.com) in 1998 for its 1.0 release.〔 In 1999, TEN went under and ARC appeared to go with it. But by December 1999, World Opponent Network (WON) had acquired ARC and began to run another beta test. During this time, WON attempted to make ARC a source of income, by adding advertisements into the game interface. However, the idea never got off the ground, and WON suffered the same fate as TEN in 2001. The future of ARC was again uncertain, but Sierra Entertainment bought WON which included ARC. This kept ARC going under much the same operation as WON had. A few updates were added to ARC but these were only security issues. In 2002, development was handed to a community member with the alias Err0r. Err0r resigned on April 21, 2005 〔(arc-hq.net ) - ''Err0r Resignation post. April 21, 2005.''〕 handing the lead administrator role over to Goose and Sonique, who were Co-Lead Administrators until Sierra eventually terminated ARC.〔(arc-hq.net ) - ''New ARC Lead Admin(s). May 9th, 2005.''〕
