Retro Tanks: Arena [2-4 PLAYERS] [11 Arenas!]

Archive: 18 posts


Bring your friends and battle it out in Retro Tanks: Arena! The idea is basic, but the fun is endless! Shoot it out retro style in many different arenas (11 at the moment), with more on the way! Has a full main menu to choose your arena and music, with no level links...Left Stick: Move, Right Stick: Aim, R1: Shoot... Remember, Multiplayer only! (Always best with 4 people!) Just added the new Capture the Flag Arena today!

I'm considering making a whole set of capture the flag arenas, but I'm running short on arena layout ideas, so if you have any you'd like to share, please do 2011-02-04 03:42:00

Don't bump your levels. I did it and everyone started complaining that I was lol.

I tried this level, it's pretty cool. We both have very similar levels lol. Have you played my "Tank Buster" level? It's like yours just more....eh... three dimensional?

Looks good. I'll queue it up!

I'd appreciate it if you played my Director's Cut level (in my sig) and told me what you think. (I'm adding another whole scene and it's very nearly done. It'll be ready this time tomorrow, if you want to wait or are busy etc.!)

This is an awesome combination of pixel tank games.

I literally was astounded by how much you crammed into one level!

The only thing i would suggest would be if you could implement a restart option where once you finish one game it goes back to the main menu, just a bit fiddly to keep replaying.

Honestly all the modes were awesome and i couldn't spot any glitches at all - i don't know of any other improvements you could make!

I love how simple it is as well, you've done well to keep things to a minimum.

Great job, if you have the time, take a look at my mini-game, link in my sig.

Thanks for the awesome review! By my calculations I should be able to fit about 10 more arenas (once they are finally finished..) I have thought of a way to make the game restart after it ends, but it will take a full re-vamp of all current arenas, it will be painstaking, but it is totally on my to-do list

I will gladly check out your levels/games as well the next time I get on LBP2, hopefully very soon

Added original chiptunes to main menu/title screen... it's a little quiet, but I can't make it louder ;P

EDIT: I've removed that music, I just wasn't happy with it.

Lol I'm always trying to think of some more! I just added the 14th arena, Hide! Visual obstacles block your view and change every 30 seconds! I also added hearts to the 1P SOLO arena, they heal half your health bar 2011-02-22 14:40:00

Made a large number of tweaks to the 1P SOLO arena, biggest addition being a helper drone that spawns and helps you kick tank butt!2011-02-23 04:52:00

I just wanted the fans of Retro Tanks: Arena to know I am officially working on a Tanks Ahoy! clone.. (think Wii Play) Just getting some things worked out like the mines and bouncing bullets, and deciding if i wanna make it 1-4 players or just leave it as 1-2, 2 players of course being much easier to make and keep a good balance.. Give me your thoughts!2011-05-28 08:00:00
