Bandits
I grabbed this game during the Steam Winter sale of 2020. For the sale price, i have to say it is a lot better quality than most of the games at the same price point from what i saw. While the game is built around local or remote play PVP versus mode, it also has a fun 16 level single player story mode. Each of the tanks you can play as all have their own unique feel and play style with pickups in game any tank can use. The game has a slight difficulty curve which is challenge while still being an engaging experience. What really stood out to me the most was the level design. Every level contains destructible environment elements to use to your advantage. All of the level have their own unique play style, adding variety to the gameplay. For the campaign all the maps available have their own unique challenges, which i would love to see added to a versus mode in the future. For example, the racing or more tower defense style defend modes with players switching sides. The game reminds me of a classic play style of Blastcorp and Blaster Master. I look really forward to seeing what future potential this game has. There is a lot this game could do to become an even greater and more engaging game. Mainly online net code that is not steam remote play dependent. I would love to see more stuff for the humans to do before getting their tank such as repairing the tank or acquiring some mission item. This could include stealth or gun play which would make the game have more depth along with building character story. If you want a fun casual couch co-op game to play with up to four people this is defiantly a potential buy for you. Even if you just plan to play the single player mode the game is very enjoyable.

I really liked the style and it’s very fun to play, specially if you can gather 3 more ppl, battle royales are chaotic in the way you want them to be.

Green Steel
It’s a fun, well developed game! Multiple maps, controller support, and sound design that actually sounds like it’s supposed to! A typical tank game, as far as that goes.

What a game!!!
Keep up the good work with more updates!!!
Καταπληκτικό παιχνίδι που βγάζει έντονα το ρετρό στοιχείο χωρίς όμως να δείχνει παλιό. Φανταστικό και σαν coop και σαν pvp. Οτι καλύτερο έχω παίξει τον τελευταίο καιρό. Απίστευτα ενδιαφέρον παιχνίδι με αρκετό βάθος λόγο των πολλών modes/maps που έχει.
10/10 εύκολα!

Tank Maniacs
200 character summary
Tank Maniacs is a great chaotic Local brawler for up to 4 players, Choose a character and one of the gamemodes to Kill the competition with your tank and morph into other tanks by collecting pickups.
Story & Characters 7/10
There is not much of a story, There is a story, But that won’t play out in the game, There is just a small piece of text on the store product page, But I focus on the content of the game itself. The game seems to be some kind of gameshow where you have to battle tanks It has a very typical sports commentator. The game has 12 playable characters which all have their charm, They are very unique and have a bit of a personality. They don’t talk, but they all have a name, picture and a unique tank, which already tells a lot.

Amazing game. Only wish it was online.
There’s so many unique features in this game that I haven’t seen in any other. Even just the menu is a lot of fun.

Ballistic Tanks
I initially said I couldn’t recommend this as they’ve made it so it only runs in 1920x1080 and went on a bit of a rant about it… ‘Seriously, there is nothing in this game that justifies anything close to 1920x1080, 800x600 would be decadent, this is just silly’…Etc etc. BUT! This is getting fixed! and resolution based running problems aside, it’s a truly awesome game.
It’s a close likeness to/an evolution of a game I played as a tiny kid in the 80’s called Battle Tanks on the Mattel Intellivision. I’ve been looking for something to scratch the itch that game gave me for about 29 years, if you’re casually hunting for the same thing, this scratches that itch and throws in a free metaphorical handjob for good measure.

Hello Im Skill Incarnate and Welcome to My Games Review Series.
My reviews cover indie games that i have bought, had gifted to me and have been provided by developers for review.
In This Episode i am reviewing the Steam Indie Top Down Arcade Shooter called Ballistic Tanks
In this game you get behind the controls of a Heavily Armed Tank and fight against a variety of armoured foes across a series of different game modes and levels. You can fight alone, or join in co-operatively or competatively with up to four players.

Scooty Shooty
Blow up your friend’s tank before they blow up yours!
Anyone can pick up and play with simple controls: Just turn, shoot and move forward or backward. Tactics revolve around surprising your opponents, bouncing shots at them from around corners, and using the environment to your advantage while managing your ammo and health (both of which recharge gradually).
Play in free-for-all mode (everybody against everybody else) or team up with players and AI-controlled bots of the same color to beat the other teams.
TANKNAROK
Its a pretty good multiplayer party game.
The game has fairly simple controls and easy to pick up, its very fast paced and chaotic, with lots of visual effects, environemntal hazards and a wide variety of mostly randomly spawned weapons and gadgets. One round mostly lasts less than a minute, while an entire game lasts around five minutes. It makes it perfect for when you have a little bit of time to kill and a few friends around.
The only real cons with this game are its lack of single player features and a bit of wonkiness with the online multiplayer. However, neither of these are big issues, since this game works best with the local multiplayer. So, if you have some friends who want to play this with you, id definitely recommend it.

Developer posted about this game on social media. Took a quick look at the discount and video and purchased immediately. Got to play with my son tonight and we had a blast. Reminds us of the quick map changes and random weapons we loved in stick fight from another developer. This game is well polished and very fun to play. Just need more people to buy and enjoy the game so I can have more of you to play online with! I highly recommend this game especially if you have a setup to allow couch co-op.

Tank Brawl 2: Armor Fury
[received the key for free to help out a little with beta testing, but would have bought it anyway]
First of all my kids and I loved the first Tank Brawl. It was just this fun simple tank game that reminded me of NES days with tight controls and arcade-like levels. Sure it had its glitches and imperfections but it was charming and we wanted more. The devs heard our plea.
Some years later they bring us Tank Brawl 2. The graphics have improved, they managed to fit the entire campaign on a single map w checkpoints and they tried to do some interesting things that are outside of the box.

For an unknown game from a two persons vietnamese studio that’s only been tried by less than three hundred players, I was pleasantly surprised to find it actually quite fun and well made!
With its vibrant colors, pudgy enemies, short engagement ranges, and screens filled with bright bullets, it looks quite arcadish. But there’s no forced scrolling: I was still always in control of where and when to go. Though it’s not really free roaming, more like sequences of screen-sized canyons and walled arenas, with a couple secret paths. I was also free to choose between different views, from vertical top down camera, to a near horizontal view, and some inbetween, with controls adapted to each: for example in top down, the screen doesn’t rotate, and the right stick is the turret direction, while in more angled views, the right stick is the turret rotation, and the camera follows the line of fire. Not sure it’s clear, but ah, my point is the control scheme changes to best fit the camera. I used a gamepad and didn’t even try KBM btw.

Treadnauts
Treadnauts is the kind of game that hits all the bases. Everything I want from couch-gaming can be satisfied after playing just one match.
Pros
-It’s flawless movement mechanics make the game feel buttery smooth with a controller in hand.
-The art style is unforgettable, it’s suave and leaves a smile on your face.
-Jazz never felt so smooth, as in, the music is dope as heck and sticks in your head like a child’s favorite cartoon theme song.
-Caring developers who update the game regularly with relevant and meaningful changes.

Note: Review was updated after Early Access ended.
Fantastic game for playing with other people! The game mechanics are solid and the controls feel great. Development on the game has stopped so we won’t be seeing more content, but what we have right now is more than enough for playing with friends. The community surrounding the game has died down from the activity that it boasted during the Early Access period, but the small community that remains on Discord is very friendly.

Tanklike
Small little roguelike game with a suprising amount of depth.
Has a lot of stuff to find out, weapons to unlock, and just generally has a lot of replay value
And to top it off it has a fully-functional level editor for you to make your own randomly generated dungeons
