Tank Trouble is a one to three player deathmatch game in which there are multiple items that you can pick up to enhance your ability to win. The map changes every time someone wins or when everyone loses, and it is completely random, no one knows where they will spawn or what map it will be. This makes the game very interesting and enjoyable. Shots bounce off of walls, which adds an element of strategy to the game.
There are five items in the game: rockets, grenades, chaingun, laser, and death ray. They all have special properties and can be used strategically to take out your enemies in funny or just awesome ways. Let's start off with rockets. Rockets home in on the nearest tank (which could be you) after around a one second activation period. Rockets can be outran if you have enough skills and can switch targets if you run by another person. Grenades explode into small shrapnel that blow up any tank it touches, but goes away after hitting a wall. They explode either after hitting a player, not hitting anything for too long, or if the person who shot it hits the shoot button again, which can be used to take out multiple targets without putting yourself at risk. Chaingun shoots tons of small shots, and also has a wide spread, which can end up in you hitting yourself. You can also move and turn while shooting. Laser bounces off walls, and shows where your shot will go, well at least only about 1/4 of it. That can also end up in you hitting yourself. Death ray is by far the best item. It peirces through walls, and if your aim is slightly off, it will curve and hit your enemies, but it takes about half a second to charge, which can be used by your enemies to shoot you if they are close enough.
The controls of this game are all on the keyboard and mouse, so three players can get a little cramped. Overall, this game is very fun and is very competitive.
Our score is an 8/10. The game is very fun, but it has its flaws, and can be frustrating at times, overall great though.
This is also the last blog club of the year, and one of our senior members Miles T. is leaving and going to the high school. He has his own blog, Miles on the MBTA: http://milesonthembta.blogspot.com/
He will be missed.
Thank you for staying with us for most of the year, and I hope you have a good rest of your year!
