Another tanks game, arrow keys for both players as it’s turn based. Hold space to power up.

It’s flash 5 so uses some old code 🙂

Nice work so far guys! =]

Yeah, I was thinking of worms when I made it, hence the destroyable land.

yeah, I guess it has been done many times.  
I remember playing games  
where 2 castles shot on each other with cannons on a c64 in black and white  
2 apes threw exploding bananas on each other  
and Worms

all with basically the same concept

The apes one came with QBasic, called Gorrilas(it had a sweet theme song), also with that came Nibbles(ie. snake).

There is also a really cool realtime version of worms called liero that you might be able to find by googling… and there is also an amazing free game called Gunbound that takes that concept to a whole new level, [www.gunbound.net](http://www.gunbound.net), it’s worth the huge DL, it’s probably one of the best and most in-depth free games out there for sure.
