This forces the player not to sit in a corner and attack from there, which makes it harder and it makes the player feel stupid. Both of which are good things.

Initially I thought you could crush the enemy with your recoil (and this would have been the weapon).

It packs a powerful punch, but unfortunately it's SO powerful it sends you hurtling backwards an alarming distance. Although this \"feature\" of your tank may seem to do nothing but increase your chances of crashing into an enemy or off an edge, perhaps it can be turned to your advantage...?\r\n\r\nTo control the tank use the mouse cursor to orientate yourself and aim, and WASD to move. Left mouse button fires. But be careful when you do so!\r\n\r\n\r\nAdditional Notes:\r\nFor the standalone Windows Unity build, I would recommend these settings:\r\nScreen size = 1280 x 720\r\nWindowed = Yes\r\nQuality = Fantastic","title":"Recoil"}
