This is a sequel to the popular Hover Tank 3D. It was my attempt to improve on the mechanics of the original game while introducing a lot of new features to the engine. This demo features the game engine and working map editor, and in some ways already surpasses its predecessor. The graphics are probably the most noticeable improvement, as well as the addition of actual terrain. Arena sizes have been increased to roughly 3 times of the original game, and the game has been supplemented with textures all around. The plan for HT3D2 was to create a primarily multiplayer experience, with battles between 2-8 players. Multiple weapons and (possibly) multiple play modes were planned, and I also aimed to make the game highly customizable. The game would come with many pre-built maps and terrains, but also with a robust editor, which would allow players to create their own levels for use in battle, using an assortment of included textures and models. Custom maps would be downloaded and stored to a user’s computer, and would be playable the instant the player connects to the action. The player’s tank would also be customizable, with a 2-color scheme, and possibly a collection of logos / add-ons. However, development was never completed and another game on a different engine is planned. |
