summary

Pocket Tanks was adapted from Welch's earlier Amiga game Scorched Tanks. Pocket Tanks feature modified physics and additional weapons ranging from simple explosive shells to homing missiles. The game also allows players to move the tank.

The goal of Pocket Tanks is to use various weapons to attack the other player's tank. Each hit scores a certain number of points, which varies based on the weapon and the proximity of the target. At the end of 10 volleys, the player with the highest score wins.

gameNote

It was one of the first co-op playing experiences I ever had. Two people take turns playing on the same computer. It is a turn-based game. You have two tanks with a lot of weapons and each tank is at each end of the screen. You have to set the angle and power and shoot at the other tank. Whoever gets the most damage wins the game. The idea sounds simple but they bring in the creativity with the type of weapons. It was fun. I played it with my brother. When I think about Pocket Tanks I think about playing it with my brother.

After the internet revolution in my country I switched from single player console games to online and multiplayer games.
