Made in Unity 4.6 using 3-D physics
Gimp artwork
No audio

1980’s AI simulator is a top down sky box view of a hover tank battle, with 3d physics enabled projectiles.
This is my first Ludum Dare entry, not much in the way of art and no sound but, the game is a hard core physics simulation.

At the time of uploading the stand alone Windows, Mac, and Linux are untested.

They are direct ports from the web player done by Unity 4.6
Thank you.

Enjoy.

I dont really get this game. I dont understand what is the aim of the game. Not the best entry. Better luck next time.

The 3D orientation of the weapon is pretty difficult to acclimate, but the idea is interesting. Nice game.

This is a neat game, took a while to figure out

The user interface was very hard to get a hang of.

Cant get the point :) Hard to get a hand on it.

The Linux build doesn't seem to contain an executable. I tried to get the web player to work in Linux via https://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/unity3d-web-player-in-linux-browsers-thanks-to-pipelight-.2996 but the plugin wouldn't show up in my browser.

I was also totally lost. I don't think my orbital strike was doing anything either.

Having to use the keyboard arrows plus the numeric keypad with a single hand was super frustrating, plus the mouse didn't seem to rotate my turret at all and the fire system didn't seem to do anything (web version) *_*

Ah... I would probably enjoy this more if I had a numpad on my laptop. As it is, I can't play.

Like many others, I really don't understand what's happening or what the point is. The controls didn't seem to work for me either, except movement. I couldn't fire or rotate.

It's a shame because I love hardcore physics simulations (Spintires yay!)
