'''World of Padman''' is a free [[first-person shooter]] that began as a [[Quake III Arena]] mod called PadMod. The current version runs on an enhanced version of the ioquake3 engine, which is based on the Quake III Engine. Most of the maps in the game are lilliput style, and have a commercial-quality level of graphic complexity. Because of originally being a mod for Quake 3 Arena, most of the gameplay is similar. However, there is no Capture the Flag mode in World of Padman. World of Padman fully supports bots in both online and offline play for all game types. The bots have a variety of skill levels that you can select based on what you feel your gaming ability level is. Even though there is no single player mode implemented yet there is an option for one on the main menu. This feature will be added later. World of Padman also allows you to record demos as .dm_68 files and videos as .avi files using /record and /video. To stop recording you can use /stoprecord and /stopvideo.

==Reception==
WoP has been featured in several online publications such as Moddb, Slashdot and ESReality as well as printed game magazines. The German TV show GIGA broadcasted an extensive WoP review.
Though there are Windows and Mac players, the Linux scene is particularly interested in WoP. The Linux-Gamers.net portal has put WoP on their Live-DVD, which offers instant gaming out of the box.
==Modifications==
World of Padman fully supports modifications. Currently some of the most well-known modifications available are:
* [http://padworld.myexp.de/index.php?news&update_id=63 ENTE's PadPack]
* [http://padworld.myexp.de/index.php?news&update_id=72 Carnage Music Pack]

==Future Development==
Currently a [http://news.moddb.com/21569/gogitason-presents-monsterhawk/ MonsterHawk] alternative skin for MonsterPad is in the works, which will be shipped with the next game patch. Unlike MonsterPad, MonsterHawk will have no nail in his head or claws. Also, in the non-standalone version there were two maps, ENTE's PadShop and GlowStar's AnteRoom which haven't been converted to work with the standalone yet. These may be available in the future, and the development team is aware or the popularity of these maps. Also a fix for a clipping bug that is currently in one of the maps will be released with the next update as well.
