this game is boring because the player tank moves too slow and it’s even worse when energy is being depleted. and when i have to move rocks out of my game, the game slows to a crawl.
by making the tank faster and removing the rocks, you could make this game a good simple maze game that still stands out because the creepy music and dim lights make for a good atmosphere.
but oh wait: the search lights – you don’t need to use them because you can see everything by turning up the monitor brightness all the way, which you need to do anyways to see anything at all. i recommend making the regular light as bright as the searchlight, but making it cone-shaped and in front of your tank so that you still need to use the searchlight if you want to see Everything around you.
and to fix the problem that i can cheese the game by turning up my monitor brightness, i recommend using color correction to make the very dark parts of the image pitch-black so that, no matter how bright my monitor is, i still can’t see them.
I escaped! I don't think you necessarily need enemies, but different types of rocks and different ways to deal with them might have been cool. Could make for an interesting roguelite imo
Totally agree that it could use some additional variety! Thanks for the feedback and for checking it out!
Good core idea. It gave me mixed feelings, because i like tanks, but I'm terrified of darkness.
Thanks for checking it out!
nice game but a bit boring to me you must add some creatures or enemies to it...
Thanks for checking it out! Given more time I would've loved to include more features 🙂
