What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Have you seen the game? It ain't done. But it IS fun. Like, ridiculously fun. We’d love to get some feedback as we start polishing it up.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I dunno. Until it’s shiny and awesome? The game will get as big and swole as the fans demand.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“HUGE differences. What we have here is a crazy fun EIGHT player game. If you guys like it, we've got plans to add more powerups, different tanks, more combat modes, music, sfx, and TONS of polish. Think of this game as a hilarious skeleton that will dance for you. If you like it, we’ll create a whole Broadway musical out of this little song and dance.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“SUPER rough. Controls and gameplay is tight and fun, but the art and UI is just getting started. In fact, we wouldn't be launching it if we weren't literally playing it everyday internally. We think the game is awesome, so we have a rare opportunity to get LOTS of feedback in the earliest stages of the game’s development.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yup. More when it’s done.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“This is like the fourth time I'm mentioning feedback. We needs it. This game is sort of like Smash Bros meets Tower Fall meets Destruction Derby. If you guys show up, we’ll be there with our lab coats and clipboards and asking inappropriate questions and all that jazz. Join us. You won’t be disappoint.”

Hey! Are you literate? THEN READ THIS!

This is Janky Tanks! The craziest local multiplayer combat action game IN THE WEST! ALSO THE EAST!

Did we say multiplayer? More like multi-SLAYER! This game combines simple controls with endless action. Blow up your friends. Blow up your enemies. Blow up yourself, because this game features ROCKET JUMPS!

This game is stupid easy to play. Here’s the tutorial: knock your opponents off the screen. DONE!

Why is it "janky"? Because it's bloody ridiculous. Play a few rounds and see - this game will make you yell expletives at your friends and loved ones. In a good way.

This game uses CONTROLLERS. Xbox, Playstation, or whatever dodgy third party awesomeness you've got. Plug it in and PLAY!

Featuring the following features:

  • 1 - 8 PLAYERS! YES I SAID 8!!!
  • CHOOSE YOUR COLOR!
  • TWO CONTROL SCHEMES!
  • LOTS OF LEVELS, WE THINK
  • WALL JUMPS!
  • POWERFUL POWERUPS!
  • HORNS! THE KIND YOU HONK!

What are you waiting for? Seriously, are you even still reading this? I've run out of things to say, so I'm just going to end this description with an all-caps:

"JANKY TANKS!!!!!"
