VTanks by jpverkamp
An entry for the Ludum Dare 26 Jam.
Completed under the competition rules, but after the original deadline.
It's not much of a game, but it does fit my two goals:
- Learn how to write a game in Haxe
- Actually enter Ludum Dare
Instructions:
- A,D; Left, Right to aim.
- W,S; Up, Down to change power.
- Space to shoot
Click for focus.

Graphics are perhaps to minimalist, white on fullblack was not very good for eyes
@Dietrich Epp: That took a while to get right. It's still a little buggy...
@raincole: Completely forgot about that! I added it to the readme text.
@everyone: Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad I made some time this time to submit. The LD community is amazing.
Nice game, and glad to see you decided to stick it out and submit instead of giving up! I liked the terrain mechanics, but I wish there were a more visual way to see your power (like the length of your barrel?) so that it would be a little easier to learn. Good job!
