Tank Attack! was made in 96 hours for GMTK 2024.

In Tank Attack! you need to build a tank without breaking the scale. Modify eight components to design a fearsome tank that both fits your play style and the weight range and use it to crush your opponents (either an AI or another local player).

Controls:

Player 1

W/S - Forward/Back

A/D - Steer Left/Right

G/H - Rotate Turret

F - Shoot

Player 2

Up/Down - Forward/Back

Left/Right - Steer Left/Right

Comma/Period - Rotate Turret

Right Shift - Shoot

Notes:

1) We highly recommend that you play 2 player versus if possible; the AI was hastily written and is as dumb as a sack of bricks :/

2) The numbers for the game are all fictional; i would've loved to do some actual research and make everything accurate but due to time constraints I had to go with what I already knew (which is absolutely inaccurate).

3) If anyone is interested, the tank in-game was based on the M4 Sherman. If I added sprites for the light and heavy chassis, they would've been inspired by the Soviet BT and German Tiger II respectively.

4) I used some publicly available assets for this project; my Matilda Tank was stuck in the garage so I unfortunately couldn't produce my own SFXs ;)

Am I missing something? I started the game in 1 player mode and it took me to the tank creation page, but I cannot find any combination that leaves the weight exactly between 25 and 35 tones. If I use the small chasis and use the heaviest things, the weight is under 25, and if I use the medium chasis and remove all extra things the weight is above 35. 
EDIT: Oh, I reloaded the game and it seems the target weight is random. I will check now. 

All of the weight goals are possible, but to be fair the entire system is pretty clunky. Not surprised you found it difficult
