No one with any pride at all would have ever published this pathetic game. No one with any sense would have made it badge of the day. The single buttonmashing playstyle is mindless. The inability to rebind that singlebutton to a keyboard where autorepeat would make it quasi-playable is moronic. The fact that all bubbles that you knock off of other tanks disappear when you get bounced to another node is absolutely ridiculous. Along with the fact that all tanks restore to full health when you get bounced as well. Fail game, there isn't a rating low enough for it.

Another thing I don't like is how you can't lock into one Bubble so you don't accidentally move to another bubble when you're skimming the edges to dodge.

everytime i try to play this game, my control keys overdo it, and i lose control of my ship and lose all i had, is it possible to add arrow key control?

Bubble Tanks 2 is MUCH better than this one. You have auto-fire, a mini-map, and you can choose how you upgrade your tank. I still like this one though, so 3/5 Stars. Strategy for this game: Go in a spiral from where you start, defeating easy enemies so you can upgrade your bubble tank. Your final upgrades in this game is getting 3 guns, then getting one small/fast and one large/slow gun, and then the final upgrade is a faint and then bright shields. Once you have the shields, just head in one direction as far as possible from where you started, and after about 30-50 bubbles, you will come across the boss.

It's really sad that developers don't update their games. I know there are many Bubble Tanks versions since this one came up back in 2007, but it would seriously be great if they would at least add the necessary usability features that people are asking.
Constantly clicking to shoot in a frame game is annoying not only because of finger strain, but also because you'll find yourself clicking outside the frame into the site. Not once did I click a link on the page and had to start all over.

Since you can't see your enemies when you shoot them, it'd be only fair if their shooting was a bit random too. Just like every other game in the Bubble Tank series, this one is awful. It's just mindless clicking randomly until you get lucky enough to earn more bubbles than you lost. Seems like one of those games the creator didn't go through the trouble of playing to check if the game was actually decent.

Is this game even fair? After about 5 minutes, I lost any bubble cover I had, and concurrently sand-bagged from one screen to another before it decided to ping-pong me between two screens. The homing ones didn't seem to affect my character at some point, but it didn't matter as they were slow and I could just shoot them. At one point collect bubbles didn't even work. You also move a bit fast, as I can hardly stay within a bubble, and losing all progress is frustrating as I'm trying to whittle down a large thing with no health and a peashooter. Are there bigger guns? That might help as enemies seem highly overpowered, come from all angles, and sometimes aren't even in the arena when I'm shooting. I've also been hit when there was no bullet around me. Rather frustrating game.

I had a small ship that shot a spread of 3 fast bullets, then it upgraded into a big ship that shot a regular bullet and one giant slow bullet... Hooray?

If anyone wishes to play easy mode (that still is kinda difficult) change your mouse settings so right click is double click, spam that to gain machine gun.

The sticky buttons are way too much of a problem. I have this problem sometimes in other games too, but not so much. This is just ridiculous, I wanted to give this game a 4/5 but due to a big fail in the scripting I'm giving it a 3/5.

this game is not fun at all don't even bother trying to get the botd its not worth 15 points for all the time youll have to put into it and its really hard to keep pushing the shoot button after youve done it about a thousand times

How to get the Badge? I just went right, strait line, cleaning all in my way. Do not take too long. If some care, I soon got a max bubble. Good Luck -----> + to keep this up

The criticism people are making on this game is very valid points, but they are all points that were made years ago and issues that were fixed in sequels. Keep in mind people you are playing a game that is about 5 years old now.
Back then I loved this game and now I can't believe how frustrating it is... Damn this badge of the day, I beat this game before I was playing games on Kong...

I give up. its fun but alot of the previous recommendations wouldn't make it seem as long and endless as Haunted House for Atari.

fun, but after my tenth time of having to go back a bubble even though i started that little world with the burst fire tank, it got really annoying.

I'm having trouble moving around, nothing happens when i push any keys, even if I change them. Shooting works, but nothing else. Anyone know what's the problem?

Chairchucker, I don't think they actually go through every day and decide what game they want to put as BotD. It's most likely randomized with certain guidelines (no impossibles, hard ones less often).
