Avoiding missiles becomes a bit too easy with a single upgrade in engine. Consider dividing it into acceleration/top speed/brakes or just decreasing the engine bonus. Or just increasing bullet speed.
thanks, will look into it. -Leigh . . . . I think you may want to try a harder difficulty, as the enemy bullets become faster as the difficulty increases. :) -Onur

Fun game but I didn't like having to restart from the beginning after dying past the first shop checkpoint. There should be a save option

Really impressive, I'll definitely play the sequels. One problem, sometimes bullets and cannons will fly through barriers, especially when you shot while moving.
Yes we put that in as rocks are random heights and thought every so often one would get through a gap. You can use it to your advantage sometimes. -Leigh

Ah, I didn't get any money because I was on easy. Another Idea would be to do different tank types. offensive(heavy firepower,weak defense) Defensive(strong armor,weak firepower), balanced, specialty(flamethrowers and stuff) and easteregg tanks.
Yes, we had flamethrower down, nice idea. selecting a tank type would be good for multiplayer also, depending on your choice to play defensive or attacking. -Leigh
If you play the beginner mode you can't earn any cash. Try the standard difficulty. Thanks for pointing that out, we will make that clearer in the next version. -Leigh

Great game and to answer you, no it isn't very clear about holding down the fire button to shoot the mortars farther. I learned how to do it by mistake actually. Spent most of the level shooting them up close. If you could make a target move as the mouse button is held down it would make people realize that you have to hold the button down to shoot. I very very much enjoyed this game. Would very much like multiplayer action. some deathmatch,capture the flag and KOTH modes would be VERY fun! I'll be waiting for the next games. Great job
Yes Multiplayer would be great. ping time and lag are the issue in flash games (Onur the coder says) maybe if it was downloadable we could do that. Agreed, team capture the flag/deathatch would be fantastic. -Leigh

Thanks for the comments. Planning a trilogy with 4 levels each at the minute. Part 1 in a few months. Is it clear you have to hold down fire for a long range mortar? I'm concerned. 8) Any ideas for next version would be great, thanks.
Funny, i'd never seen that game until you mentioned, especially as i used to make amiga games. It does have many similarities. Think i'll have to watch the whole youtube vid for ideas now. Thanks. -Leigh
