✦ AI summary

Players praise the fun gameplay, charming art style, and engaging upgrade system that creates varied build possibilities, comparing it favorably to similar roguelike survival games. Common complaints include unclear tutorial instructions for new players, some weapon balance issues like excessive recoil on certain upgrades, and weapon trajectory not matching visual indicators, though these don't significantly detract from the overall enjoyable experience.

Nice little snack of a game. Some imbalance, the recoil on the multi-shot upgrade is so much you cant aim, but overall the weight and spring of the tank is very fun

Played a few runs of it so far, it's very fun to play! This one is a wave based survival tank games, somewhat similar to Vampire Survivors or Megabonk, but with just one character, so it's a more focused experience. I do feel like the first run could use with a simple explanation of the goal of the game, but I figured things out by trying them out easily enough. The controls handle pretty well and making some cool builds by gradually unlocking felt nice. I think the longest I lasted was to around 25 minute mark? I know I get obliterated by orbital lasers repeatedly, so maybe there is some boss I need to find and defeat. Overall, fun tank game with cool upgrade paths. I was partial to improving ramming damage and rockets first, so I can just don't think about careful aiming for a bit. Also, it performs really good on the steam deck! Deck's controls also feel way more intuitive to use, so it's a great sit on a couch and have a chill game break title. P.S. I might update this review after I play some more of it, I would recommend this to wave survival and tank action games fans! There isn't enough cheap and cheerful arcadey tank games like this, and I haven't really enc…

This game has promise My one and only complaints so far from playing it is I wish the trajectory you see is the actual distance your shots going cuz I sometimes find it falls way too short of where the reticle is showing other than that it's a great game. Yes I know you could say I need to get good but it just feels a little unintuitive with that like it doesn't have to be pinpoint accurate but it feels like it's falling and hitting the ground halfway between me and where the radical is pointing at, and one other complaint I would have is that show/tell you that you have to pick up loot from the enemies to get new parts for upgrades I kind of figured that would be the case but it doesn't show you what they look like .like a little tutorial for when you first play the game would be great, a simple tutorial, see this enemy kill it, see what it drops look for that. That would be the only thing I would want in the tutorial for this game with how simplistic it is The rest of it came pretty naturally to me. So in short has just a little bit of room for improvement but other than that it's a solid 7/10 for me
