Hello all,
Hover Tank Battle League is a small, local multiplayer game for Windows. The game features:
Local multiplayer tank dueling!
Supports Xbox and Ps4 controllers
Single player mode against bot with keyboard and mouse support
4 arenas
!!! DEMO NOW AVAILABLE HERE !!! >>>> https://rubeki.itch.io/hover-tank-battle-league
After release (not necessarily in order):
Make more promotional material (videos)
Likely, bug fixes
Steam release
Tutorials
AI vs AI mode
Mac version
<ASIDE> Thank you VERY much to the UPBGE team !!! Without it, controllers would more or less not work on Windows, so you saved this project (I developed on Mac, to later find that multiple controllers were not supported on Windows!) <ASIDE>
<strong>
Thanks!

Great project!
Local multiplayer tank dueling!
Is this LAN or split screen? I think players will be more happy with split screen.

Thanks for the support guys!
@haidme , it is split screen! I just recorded the above media while playing against the bot.
I should add some split screen screenshots and gifs…
On a related note, I had great difficulty recording videos, gifs, etc. with Cam Studio. What do you guys use for screen recording?

Here’s me getting destroyed repeatedly by the AI. I rigged the split screen for single player mode. Hard to get people to play against on a weekday!

Thanks!
All the Arenas support split screen. You can toggle the bot on and off at any point during the match - when it’s off, the split screen is engaged.
It’s not released yet, so you may not be able to play it this weekend unfortunately. I have a few family members testing it on their PCs currently just to make sure it runs smoothly.
But definitely watch for announcements next week!

So I found an amazing free screen recording software for Windows called ShareX:
ShareX is an open source program that lets you take screenshots or screencasts of any selected area with a single key, save them in your clipboard, hard disk or instantly upload them to over 80 different file hosting services.
Along with Audacity, using the WASAPI (Option 2 on this page: http://www.howtogeek.com/217348/how-to-record-the-sound-coming-from-your-pc-even-without-stereo-mix/ ), you can record high frame-rate screen capture with sound!
So expect gameplay videos

Pretty cool. I found one called ShareX as well. It doesn’t seem to record audio though, so you have to use audacity simultaneously.
Also, made a video showing how the AI aims:

Here’s progress on one of the new arenas: Winter Wonderland
As you can see, it’s much larger than the original arenas!
