*I recommend you to just go play the game before reading any of this. If you get stuck or don't understand the controls, come back to read.*
Command your tank and defeat every enemy to clear the levels.
The game was made almost completely from scratch, and I was planning to submit it to the Compo but missed the deadline.
- Go back and forth in time to get the best outcome. Delay your victory to ensure it.
- The time travelling can even be used to roll-back bugged enemies, as they sometimes can clip though walls.
- Four action-packed levels.
- Clean graphics.
- A fully-functional main menu.
- A lot of fun.
- UI sounds are not implemented.
- Scene transitions.
- Animation smoothing.
- More levels.
- More enemy types.
- I'll replace the downloaded assets (textures, sounds, music) with my own and keep building over this. I think an expanded version of this game would work pretty well as a casual mobile game.
- I built a deterministic simulator for the levels so that I could achieve the time travelling. This was an amazing learning experience that I will try to use to develop strategy games in the future.
- Probuilder for the level geometry.
- All of the graphic design, UI and some textures were made with Inkscape, and GIMP as an auxiliary tool.
- Blender for the single 3D model: the tank.
