Reviews for Tankmen: Incursion

Great graphics, not so great gameplay.

I will admit it, this game is delivered with a beautiful presentation. Good music, sound effects, art, animation, etc. But sometimes looks aren't everything.

Gameplay is ruined by two things:
1. Super Sensitive Camera
2. Hard to adapt to controls.

Often times the camera will be zooming in and out twenty times to prevent you from knowing what the the hell is going on.

The controls aren't the best either. Using the S key to jump made playing the game much harder than it should be.

Enemies are impossible to hit because of the certain angles you are limited to. This is made even more frustrating with the sensitive camera and awful control.

Overall I think this game deserves credit for taking a pretty big leap for graphics on flash, but gameplay was... bad.

My advice: Spend as much time on gameplay as much as you do with graphics.

Looks good but doesn't play well

A lot of work went into the graphics, but the gameplay just doesn't work very well. The dynamic camera was terrible. I liked that it zoomed in and out, but it shook so much I couldn't tell what was going on half the time.

Crazily Underrated

I dunno what's with games lately but it seems people don't have the courage to try out some new styles. I really enjoyed this the game, ya the camera was crazy but to me that was something new, made it feel kinda hectic and gave it it's own personal style. The graphics were awesome, really cool flashy feel. packed with levels and bosses, really enjoyed it. ignore all these bitches :)

Good graphics, bad game...

The graphics are absolutely amazing in this game (what else would we expect from you) and this clearly has the potential to be a great game. I liked your interpretation of the Tankmen character, and the 3d effect was good.

However, the "dynamic" camera movement was both annoying and made the game difficult to play, half of the time the player didn't even seem to be on the screen, and it moved about far to quickly to be any help in locating the enemies. Also, the enemy AI is terrible, the flying enemies take absolutely no notice of the terrain around them, and they frequently flew below me, so they couldn't shoot me, and I couldn't shoot them.

The thing that annoyed me most though, was the fact this had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with Tankmen (apart from having one of the characters in it) there was no story, no cutscenes and none of the humour that Tankmen is famous for. It was just a standard shooter game (and a bad one at that) with Tankmen stamped on top of it.
