It could've been better...

I didn't hate it, but it just didn't control very well. The way the game's set up you would expect that you'd be able to just move through the paths that are there or that you help create; unfortunately it seems the tank is a tad bit too small and sometimes gets a corner caught against the wall, forcing you to have to back up and move over slightly just to go through a hole in the wall or some hallway. The enemies weren't too bad just kind of wish they were a bit smarter instead of just shooting at random, and the guns you control as well as yourself are a tad bit awkward; but otherwise, it's a decent concept and if you just tighten up some things here and there I wouldn't mind playing it again.

horrible

controls don't work, the audio alternates between high and low randomly, and when the controls do work, the map eats the tank and you become locked in that spot without any means to move or fire a weapon.

ehh??

I'm using a laptop that doesn't have a number pad and the 1 don't work. controls awful. You get some stars because I actually wanted to play this.

The AI needs work.

It's nice. Simple graphics, nice tune, but the AI is just awful. You should make AI be aware of the location of the base and make it find or make the path. Reminds me of GameBoy. I'd rate it higher, but the tanks just randomly change the movement. The performance is not that high either, there are slowdowns from time to time.

Quite something to improve

The graphics are either too pixelized (normal) or look like I forgot my glasses (smooth), a few parts are still russian, the key-config does only show numbers instead of keys and the controls are pretty buggy (autofire fires ten missiles at once and then suddenly stops?!?). Being able to drive out on top of the screen is also probably not wanted, right? Oh yeah and the blinking bonuses are kinda annoying, its better if they just appear and thats it.
