In Tanker, the world lies in ruins, consumed by a ruthless, misanthropic super-intelligence. As the last human tank commander, you are humanity’s final line of defense — a lone steel titan waging war against endless legions of AI-driven machines. Every kill secures a heartbeat for humanity.

About

Tanker is an endless isometric, single-player, bullet hell video-game in which you control a tank shooting down hordes of enemies. You are able to use power-ups to your advantage to rain even more carnage upon the deadly enemy war-machines. This project is part of my introduction to Game Engines course.

Weakest enemy, can only shoot once and then has to drive towards the next point.

T2000

Constantly aims its turret at the player. Persistently shoots at the player.

Every 10th wave the TRX will appear. It has a set of turrets and can shoot rockets at the player. Its the most powerful enemy but also the slowest.
