Very simple concept.
Graphics are perhaps to minimalist, white on fullblack was not very good for eyes

I like the destructible terrain.
Great "Worms" concept, really Minimalist. Good Work !
To those who got confused: press space to shoot.
after loosing my first tank to myself, it is quite fun to play. reminds me gorillas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorillas_(video_game)
@Nakato: I actually played with a few nice gradient fills, but for the life of me I couldn't figure out how to get Haxe to generate it bottom to top rather than left to right which just looked strange. Alternatively, I could have used images (a la http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/2/21/Scorched_Earth_title_screen.png/300px-Scorched_Earth_title_screen.png), but that's a bit less minimal.
@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 work! This would be a cool worms style game engine that you could build upon.
That terrain-breaking algorithm is cool.
I miss Scorched Earth : (
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!
Decent game.
Great game, very much like a minimal Scorched Earth.
It works. Had to get used to the terrain behaviour.
I remember being addicted to this kind of tank games years ago. Great memories :3
maybe the graphics were a bit too minimalist but I had fun playing it
the terrain destruction is awesome! Great job!
Good work for your first time with new software :)
Really minimalist.
Classic scorched earth :D. Needs more visual appealing, but its hard in few days :)
