Catch the rain in your tank. The more rain you catch, the more money you get:) its as simple as that.

Use the left and right arrow keys to move the tank.

Catch the rain, dodge anything else.

I made this for a TAFE assignment. Its the first game I've actually kept working on, I usually get distracted and start working on something else. Its also the first piece I've developed to a point where I think it's decent enough to submit on newgrounds. That being said, its still a fairly easy game, just something to keep people entertained for a little while :)

I spent ages trying to work out all the bugs, I'm pretty sure it hasnt got any left. Let me know what you think.

Too diffcult for me and the music kept repeating, quite boring.

"Good game, but..."

by: Emby

...one little thing is preventing it from being great, and lots more fun! ... A save feature! It was still good, but not as much, knowing that if you quit or die, you have to start over. And for a game with upgrades, and stuff, you DON'T want to start over. Still though, very entertaining, and very fun!

Really? ok I'll have to look into that. I've never done any save features before so I don't know how to do them. But if you think it's that important I'll have to look into it. Thanks.

"Cool little game..."

date: October 12, 2008

The graphics are o.k. and the controls are smooth. The audio could use a on/off button; When the music restarts there's a lag in the gameplay, that needs to be addressed.
Other than that, it's a real nice effort. Way to go...........vp

yeah I ended up muting my laptop when I was testing it, but that was because I'd heard it so so so many times. I will definately add an audio button. Thanks.

"very good"

I like what you have here, I played it all the way through. I have some suggestions if you feel like upgrading it a bit more:

-more upgrades (filter upgrades that negates acid rain, stronger helmet)
-could you make the stick men's legs move when they walk?
-I was hoping to see a screen at the end that showed me my total amount of rain collected and some blurb about stupid people buying bottled water

Author's Response:

yeah I'm definately wanting to work on it more. I had a deadline for TAFE, but now that its finished for that I'll go back and add some more stuff in. I like your ideas for more upgrades.

I will go in and add more of a wrap up story. Thanks for your suggestions.
