Rip off
No offence but this sucks. This is almost exactly the same as pocket tanks except less weapons.Absolutely no originality
Reviews for "Scorched Earth Flash"
this was
pretty lame
Not an accurate clone
Isn't that an understatement? The original was a game about options, different weapons, terrain, etc. I wouldn't call this Scorched Earth for the life of me.
In any case to be more true to the original lose the fancy reaction-time power meter, it's just silly.
stolen
this game has been out forever you just copied the game and made the graphics better make something that you come up with not what others already made
thanks for ruining my favorite old school game
yeah, summary says it all, thank you very much for ruining my favorite old school DOS game of all time Scorched Earth, you're missing nearly everything that made the original fun (also this is a rip off of scorched earth, not artillery duel, as the name implies), when you put back the economy options, AI players, some odd 200+ weapons, the ability to actually buy weapons on the first round, and everything else including being able to set the wind, air viscosity, wall type, the 8 different AI personalities that the original had for computer tanks, the gas to drive around the field, the K button (for when your friends try to make your move for you, shows a screen saying no kibitzing, otherwise known as the STFU screen), the death's head, the mirv, the weapons that put back ground besides just removing it (good way to kill the idiot type computer tank, heavy dirt ball straight at it, so he shoots himself), the all 5 types of shield including probably the best one the heavy mag shield (not meant to actually be hit, bullet is pushed up when being above these, but will take small damages too), the over 10 different tank types you could select, including a few that were stationary so gas didn't let you drive.
basically, it seems like you've shat out a half arsed version of one of the greatest games ever since seeing it for a nano second on a friend's screen.
if the original game wasn't released as abandonware by now, i'd send them an email about your theft of a game that's incredibly horrible based on your slack jawed impressions of the real game.
0 of 10 from me, thanks for killing nostalgia.
