Description
The sequel to the 2008 Tron/Battlezone inspired, first-person tank action game!

Tank Universal1 appeared on Steam and other selected outlets in 2008.

"An arcade tank shooter with oodles of variables and that special addictive quality that pulls you back again and again" - IGN [7/10]

Inspired by the shapes and spaces of Tron and the gameplay of Battlezone, the game was heavy on action. Shells arc in, explosions batter your tank as you judge an enemy's distance and lob shell after shell their way.

Easy to use FPS controls. WASD for movement, mouse look to swing your turret about. Easy to pick up and play.

Every level was different but in combat the player was just one unit amongst many on the battlefield.

Tank Universal 2 (TU2) is now under development! DEMO AVAILABLE
Go to www.tankuniversal.com for more details.


Core Features

HUD. All the information you need at a glance. Objectives listed on-screen. Radar displays nearby targets + direction to objectives.

Dodge incoming shells. To stay still is to be an easy target so keep moving. Shells have exaggerated arcs - they can be avoided if you have enough distance and skill. Check your radar and use the sights and sounds of the battlefield to gauge when to pull back or when to charge in and deal damage.

Return fire. As enemy tanks fire at you, return the favour! Judge distance and travel and send your own shells arcing their way. If there's time, hold down the fire button for a charged shot to do more damage.

Upgrade your tank. Bonuses both permanent and not so permanent if you lose your tank in battle. Upgrades include rockets and drop turrets. Can you keep the same tank for the entire game?

Shields, systems and armour. Your tank has shields but once those are gone, core systems will begin to take damage. Jump out of your tank for a quick spot of repair or jet-pack over to a new tank and take control. Additional protection can be had by collecting armour shards for extra 'bolt-on' protection.

Attack / defend / capture. Take the fight to the enemy or defend your base from epic waves of enemy tanks and other vehicles. Each level is different and presents different challenges.

Nineteen levels are planned in the base game.

Just a quick note: dev is ongoing and working towards an early access release. Stay tuned!

I'm interested in this one: The first had some pacing problems and some attempts at additional variety didn't work out too well, but if the sequel sticks to its strengths, it could be a really fun game.

I'll give the demo a shot when I have the time

This is my favourite game starting from ever since I was 7 (and that was 2008).
