  When you play local multiplayer game may be stoped, if player 1 gets destroyed. The message "game over" will appear, as if you were playing "arcade" and you ran out of lives. Multiplayer is broken

  I'll be honest, this style of game was one of those which I really enjoyed back in my childhood, but that's not to say this game doesn't do it well. It offers four tanks (the normal), as well as four surprise unlockables. While it doesn't offer too much in terms of the campaign, the versus mode is actually pretty good. There's the good ol' deathmatch which lasts until you get blown up three times, there's the juggernaut mode where you have to attempt to destroy the big freaking tank, and there's a special powerup mode for really frantic gameplay. For the kind of game that it is, the power-ups, the weapons, the graphics, and the background music are each absolutely godlike. The main menu music with its techno, the versus mode with its jazz-esque techno. Let's be fair, of course it'll be techno, it's advertised in the trailer. For £3.99 (well, -20% for me for launch discount!), this game is actually really fun. Sadly I don't have anyone to play it with though... Let's just cover a bit on what to expect when you open the game: *Open the game. *Play the campaign. *Understand literally everything you do. *Die 3 times. *Game over. *Play Vs. Mode. *Realise that the bots are too easy and up their difficulty. *Get absolutely curbstomped by the opponent CPUs. *Play Juggernaut. *10/10 would explode again. Oh, and for those of you collectors, there are STEAM TRADING CARDS!

  I initially said I couldn't recommend this as they've made it so it only runs in 1920x1080 and went on a bit of a rant about it... 'Seriously, there is nothing in this game that justifies anything close to 1920x1080, 800x600 would be decadent, this is just silly'...Etc etc. BUT! This is getting fixed! and resolution based running problems aside, it's a truly awesome game. It's a close likeness to/an evolution of a game I played as a tiny kid in the 80's called Battle Tanks on the Mattel Intellivision. I've been looking for something to scratch the itch that game gave me for about 29 years, if you're casually hunting for the same thing, this scratches that itch and throws in a free metaphorical handjob for good measure. To those of you who have no idea what game I'm going on about; I've been a gamer all my life, and the kind of gamer that would try a lot of games but only really put the time in on very few, I'm incredibly picky... Ultimately this game has gnawed on my mind since I was 4-ish, I've found it after nearly 30 years of anticipation, romanticism and warped nostalgia and it's genuinely more satisfying to play than I remembered or expected. No idea why games like this havent been a staple like space invaders, pac man, bomber man etc. It's a must try.

  This is a broken mess of a game. Resolution is locked to 1920x1080. There's a known issue since xmas 2016 that the game won't download for Windows 7 32 bit (and possibly other versions too). Sometimes my controller will work on a menu, sometimes it doesn't and I'm using the standard MS xb360 wired controller. Whenever I see the game over/continue screen, I can't actually select continue as no controller or keyboard key works. There's slowdown when the game has to draw 3-4 tanks on a screen with a couple of them shooting. Which, you know, is like 90% of the game. Assassin's Creed Unity was more polished on launch than this title. It's a shame too because I think I'd really enjoy the game if it was finished.

  Graphics is very good, it is smooth, and the AI is pretty well balanced, and the issues below have been addressed. 1) (Fixed Issue) The accuracy count literally "forgets" all except your current round for kills, but keeps ALL of the shots fired. By the time the player gets past round 5 or so, the "accuracy" count drops below 20% because you've shot ~70 times overall, but the kills for the current round only is about 10. Big oversight in the stat counters. EDIT: Also, just thought of another reason the "accuracy" count is broken. "Accuracy" in any other game means "average chance a shot fired HIT an enemy," but here it means enemies Killed. Enemies with armor can take 2 "hits" if hit from the wrong side. All in all, this game counts accuracy as: "number of enemies killed (last round only) divided by the number of shots fired (for the entire match)." 2) (Rebalanced and tweaked points/difficulty, fixed) This is the main reason for not recommending, there is no way to save upgrades between matches AND you can't upgrade between rounds either. I.E. Any coins spent on upgrades are forgotten the next time the player loses. If you can collect coins at all and spend them before a match, WHY forget the upgrades after the match is done? 3) I know this is a very simple game, but the planes mode makes me cringe.

  For someone who tried developing games using Construct2, I would like to say this game is absolutely amazing! Great controls, great graphics and effects, and fun for solo or local play, either way. It would be great if you could save the upgrades, but then again, it would not make any sense since you could easily get coins for upgrading your tanks. Hoping this game gets more updates in the future, like missions, challenges, more levels, etc..

  One of my favourite couch'em-up games on Steam. As someone who, as a boy, loved Combat on the Atari 2600, I had been looking for something similar on Steam for quite a while. Tried all the various guises, like Tankr, Tank Brawl, Tank Blast but this one, Ballistic Tanks, is the KING. A game now firmly established on my Favourites playlist, which in itself is quite a feat! Amazing fun with friends (apart from the Planes mode). Buy it!

  You are looking for a fast paced game, especially for party play when having some friends over? Well buy this, its cheap, you learn the controls in no time and you'll need a break after an hour. Clean and simple fun. Bonus: Developer is active and added stuff like dogfight for free. Works great with xbox360 and xbone gamepads.

  love this game, if you liked the old atari tanks then this is for you, even better and it really turns into a bullet hell on the later rounds. Great co-op... wish it had 4 player tho!!!!!

  This game is fun and brings me back to the old days of Combat on Atari. But there are problems of course. For some reason, the game can't decide whether it wants a mouse or controller, even though I have my controller connected. Another problem, pausing the game sends the pause menu off screen to the top left corner where I can barely see "Exit". The game also needs some proper calibration as the turret controls are a little stiff when using a controller. One last thing, there's A LOT of slow down for a game that doesn't require much in power. My PC far exceeds the requirements. I hope these are fixed soon.

  Great little game! A suped-up version of Combat from the Atari 2600. Very polished. Even the single player arcade mode is fun.

  Very fun game to pass the time! Pros: -Solid gameplay, fast, responsive and challenging. -Cool graphics. -Nice arcade mode with random levels. -Local co-op seems very solid too. Cons: -According to the developer he will never support Online multiplayer. Sad, such a fun game to play with friends. :( -Not so much about control customization, but not so much of a problem either, but the inclusion would be nice. -Price should be a little bit lower, but get in on a sale and problem solved. Personaly I do recommend this game if you don't mind the lack of Online MP, still a very fun game if you invite some friends to your house or to pass the time by yourself.

  Best tank game I've ever played, I think it would be even more awesome if it had online multiplayer!

  Fun multiplayer game - better than expected. Definitely worth buying on sale if you have friends to play with. Single player is a bit lackluster. Check out mine and my friend's
