TurnTanks
A downloadable game for Windows
Intro.
This is Turn Tanks, a fast paced, turn based, local multiplayer game.
Best enjoyed with four players and it's possible to play alone against bots.
Music by the amazing slashz
Background.
You are fighting for mineral rich asteroids.
Due to distance and the spin of the asteroid you only have a limited time to send commands to your drone tank. When you see the results of your actions, it has already happened.
Pick up care packages for an advantage on the battlefield.
Beware, you have limited fuel so be quick about dispatching the competition.
How to play.
In the beginning of each turn. Each player is given a number of action points, shown as yellow stars over their tank.
All players input their commands at the same time. When the last action point is used or the countdown reaches zero (default 5 seconds) the game enters playback mode and the consequences of all the actions are shown. Then a new turn starts.
This continues until there is only one tank left on the battlefield or the max number of turns has been played (default 10 turns).
Remember! It costs an action to turn the tank to a new direction. So if you are facing "east" and want to move one square to the north it takes two presses of up on the d-pad.
