Three words: repetitive stress injury.
Hint for others: once you get to having a shield around your tank, make one last spiral lap to build up your reserves. Then head straight out from the center until you hit the edge of the world. Travel the perimeter to find the boss.
I beat the game in only 3 hours this way.
However, it still needs the upgrades from the later versions. It gets highly tedious in this version.

You know what? No, I don't like this damn game. Hero is a great company, but this is Bullsh**. All this damn game is, is gaining a few bubbles, then getting hit a few times, loosing all your bubbles, being shot of into another bubble that has way overpowered enemies...rinse and repeat. You just can't make any damn progress because you are constantly loosing your armor and going back to the starting tank. And where the hell is this boss??? I'm just going from bubble to bubble, loosing all my bubbles, wander to another...etc etc etc...W.T.F!!!

I must really suck at this because I can't seem to stay big enough to stay in certain bubbles. Is there a trick to this because I'm not getting it at all....

I am giving up on this daily badge, this is probably one of the few games I grew to hate the more I played it...
twice now ive gotten to what I think is the "boss" and i lose all my bubbles.
Building up bubbles is such a challenge that its better to just start over with a new map if you get demolished.
Im not wasting anymore of my time, and I suggest anyone that cant get the badge on the first go not bother either

Don't waste time on this version. 3 times now I've accidentally clicked outside the window only to hit some link that takes me away then must restart from scratch. No memory of where you have been. No auto save of progress. No map of the bubbles you have been to. 1 star for this fatally flawed game.

I hate it when you beat a monster, and then you're just about to collect the bubbles but then you accidentally exit the bubble and get transported to another bubble. And when you come back and all your bubbles are gone ):
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I think I found the bubble monster, but I'm not sure as the ENTIRE bubble was filled with tiny bullets headed my way. Is that it? And if so how are you supposed to beat it?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Man that was easy, just keep going to the right bubble, and click like crazy, better than the machine gun in bubble tanks 3!

wtf i was going around bubble to bubble then a little tank gliched and chased me from bubble to bubble! worst of all i cant kill it the shots go right through it!
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Jesus. I like this game..I really do. But the same thing that pissed me off about it when it came out..still does. You can be doing great..have a huge tank, pwning everyone....but then just a few small red bubbles hit you, and you're back to nothing. If you could upgrade then that'd be good, but it's just constantly going back and fourth on being a strong tank, then taken down to nothing. All your hard work becomes for nothing when you get hit by just a few red bubbles dammit.

wow... finally got it!!! best way is get the 3rd upgrade (1st is semi auto, 2nd is 3shot, and 3rd is 1 small 1 large shot) then get ton of extra bubbles till u notice a shield of sorts around yourself. now go look for a really large non-moving enemy and destroy it while ignoring all the small mobile enemies around you till monster bubble is dead (fyi there r a lot of monsters the further out u go!) the quit this game and go play the 2nd version for a tru fun time!

All of you need to stop moaning and check out bubble tanks 2. HeroInteractive has already fixed everything you don't like!!!
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
>:( Almost final then back to square one. Wish it gave you a .5-1 sec invuln moving bubble to bubble. Oh well at least Bubble Tanks 2 is way better. Curse you badge of the day! You have eluded me once again.

OK thats an hour wasted of my life. Kudos to anyone willing to randomly bubble-hop looking for the "monster" for the hours it must take to acquire this "medium" badge -_-
Also, is it just me or is it Waaaay easier to loose parts than to get them? Id spend 15 minutes grinding to get a new ability, and a couple good hits from the enemy and Im almost back to my starting form WTF.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
8,000 levels, no save. So, basically, I have to devote an entire day of my life to this. Yeah, not gonna happen. I'll just have to accept that there will be an embarrassing hole in my badges for this. (Also, *medium* badge? Why not impossible?)
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I hate this game since the Badge of the day! I cleared 700 bubbles and didn't get the badge. After reloading the game i got the badge for killing a big enemy i killed like 100 times before...

I think the only problem with this game is the lack of an auto fire. However, it's such a massive problem that this game isn't even enjoyable because my wrist and index finger get so tired.

wow... took me 20 minutes, you just have to get the final form for your tank & it makes the rest of the game a cakewalk. my strategy for the final boss... POINT, SHOOT, & DODGE !!!!

How to beat Bubble Tanks in three easy steps.
#1 Set aside one full day.
#2 Spend fifteen minutes becoming nearly invulnerable.
#3 Spend twenty-three hours and forty-five minutes searching eight thousand bubbles for the boss.

I updated my previously overgenerous rating to one star. The whole combat system stinks, it's too easy to get forced out of the bubble you're fighting in, and it's far too easy to get picked apart. It would be difficult enough using a mouse, but it's a real pain using a laptop touch pad.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
i hate when you lose your upgraded form when you take a shitton of damage & the only way of getting it back it to go through hell in your 1st form, trying to kill enemys that are way overpowered & outnumber you >:(

I had to download an auto clicker just to beat this damn thing. Incidentally the game became more enjoyable once I did so.

one thing as soon as i press 2 buttons at a time for example A and W and my bubble keeps going up without me touching anything i dont know if its my computer on the game please help

I liked some of the newer bubble tank games but this 1 is just awfull in every way, there is nothing entertaining about it. The keys stick. Sometimes you don't get the badge due to a bug. The chance of gaining more bubble then you lose in a fair fight are pretty low, and there aren't alot of fair fights.

does anybody else have the problem where i press a direction and my tank moves nonstop in that direction? i know its got something to do with my keyboard cause this isnt the only game it does it to, but the keys arent being held down by anything and id like if somebody can help me?

the future games are sooo much better. although for me with my crappy pc, the entire series is rather laggy (so essentially spray the entire bubble)

I am with a laptop and the game is great(for the original game), but i am stuck on the bubble tank with a small and a large cannon, with a nice glowing shield like bubble around the tank.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
1st bigger bullets, move too slow! 2ndly different colored bullets would be nice, so I don't think I'm just passing my own, n then get hurt.

Player: "Man, I can't believe it destroyed almost all of my tank..."
Horatio: "I guess you could say that he... Burst your bubble."
YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
