TANX
was a PD game made in 1991 by Gaz Roberts and it was released on a cover disk of erm....i forget Amiga Format probably (not sure). I got this in 1991 and played against my brothers then and we played it this summer when i was cleaning up an A500
Anyway TANX is a great game for 2 players , no computer option here. You command a small tank on a random landscape and the object is to kill the other player.
and a cracking sound sample from A Bridge too far (film 1977)
BUT
its not a case of the quickest shot, oh no... we have lots of variables such as.
Random landscape - the computer may but a mountain in front of your tank!
wind - light zephyr to gale force
gravity - Isaac newtons best friend
fans and puller - fans to change the local wind direction.
but you can of course move the tank too...but only on the flat! Use the arrow keys as i recall.
hey its a British Leyland tank ok!
I really recommend this game , yes its a quick and short game but it has great sound effects , clever scrolling and is great fun over a beer with a pal.
its PD too , so i think i can link an ADF ?

Its a OCS/ECS A500/600 game and as i recall it works just fine on the AGA machines too.
Its a floppy image as it was on a cover disk...
have fun,
