[TankGame Example TGF2]

Control Scheme needs work

Generally it is not a good idea to use the arrow keys and the mouse. If you need to use the mouse to shoot, movement should use wasd keys. Also, the ctrl key is awkward to reach from the arrow keys. Using up or w to jump would be a tighter control scheme.

If you want to keep movement on the arrow keys, I would recommend using up to jump, and spacebar to shoot.

Uchumaru08 responds:

I'm not sure about the paid addition, but the free version only limits movement to arrow keys and jump to either shift, ctrl, or up + left/right. I made it ctrl because with up + left/right requires the tank to be moving when it jumps, and shift is just about the same as ctrl. Sorry

Good not great.

Well-produced, but the interface needs work. It is not very apparent what constitutes an interactive object, and the puzzles feel counter-intuitive as a result. It forces the player to rely too much on the hints/walkthrough.

OzMafioso responds:

Yeah, I agree there are some tough spots in there, sorry you found it counter-intuitive :( Thanks for reviewing however!

Good game, bad controls.

Movement REALLY needs to be changed to WASD. Working the mouse and the space bar with the arrow keys is too awkward. This change would make this a far better game.

RubberRepublic responds:

Use the left-click on the mouse to shoot, not the spacebar!
