T-17 Tanky is a game about shooting at distant things. You are a bird that drives a tank. You must kill foreigners who want to take your melons.

Edit to make youtube work.

That looks pretty awesome, actually! When he shot the tires out of the little utility truck and it tumbled I was pretty much sold.

Sold on (seemingly working) locational damage. Much bigger games still treat a near-miss to a radio antenna the same as a direct hit to the vehicle body. Or assume all shots landing in the vicinity are direct hits. Or do other kinds of weird shit. :wtf:

Design is pretty cool even as-is.

Hahaha it looks like it'll be awesome good fun.

I agree it's cool that there's locational damage, plus it has a plot that's just enough to get you into the game (no sarcasm whatsoever here). It's important to hate the enemy.

Is it just me or is the web page gone?
It has become clear to me in the previous days that any attempts at reconciliation and explanation with the community here has failed. I have tried my best. I really have. I pored my heart out trying. But it was all for nothing.

You win. There, I have said it.

Now there is only one thing left to do. Let us see if I can sum up the strength needed to end things once and for all.

Thanks man!

This said, is there any function to the whole unlock/login thing the game demo has? Or is it something that will only be added later and is there just as a placeholder now? I can't find a word about it.
