The pitch is deliberately narrow: tanks fighting at close range rather than at distance. Players swing the gun barrel and ram with the hull, and pick one of three tank types with different combat styles before heading out against AI-controlled machines. Movement options include acceleration pads, jump pads, drifting and aerial tricks, with combo attacks as the damage route against the AI army.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"SLAM TANK hit 50,000 Steam wishlists off a five-day store page window, and the store page is the only thing that exists.
