A downloadable game for Windows

This is my entry for Kenney Jam 2021 whose theme is Rotation

 This game is defense game akin to Plants vs Zombies in which player deploys units on grids to fend off attacks from red tanks.

Unlike Plants vs Zombies, units can be deployed directly when they are available in HUD on top of the screen.

To fit the theme, available units are rotated from one unit to next one until it repeats from 1st unit and so on. Incoming enemy tanks are also rotated from one tank type to next tank type.

Controls:

NumPad keys = move hand

X = Deploy unit (when selected slot shows available unit)

C = Remove unit

S = Move unit selector left

D = Move unit selector right

Enter = Pause

F8 = Take screenshot


Features:

[Jam version]

1. Six Blue Tank types to deploy

2. Three obstacle types + one land mine to deploy

3. Six Red Tank types

4. Two modes:

 3.1 Regular (3 tank slots, 2 obstacles slots)

 3.2 Tanks Mania (5 tank slots)

[Post Jam version]

1. Seven Tank types to deploy

2. Four obstacle types

3. Five attack items to deploy

4. Seven Red Tank types

5. Four modes:

 5.1 Regular (2 tank slots, 2 obstacles slots and 1 attack slot)

 5.2 Tanks Mania (5 tank slots)

 5.3 Zero Tanks (2 obstacles slots and 3 attack slots)

 5.4 Safe Ground (2 tank slots, 2 obstacles slots and 1 attack slots) for practice

If you're new, try playing on Safe Ground to learn the ropes :)

Enjoy this fun and challenging game !

Fun little game! Favorite mode was the one where you only use power-ups such as mines and planes! Keep it up as usual!!!

Thanks for playing, glad you have fun :D

No Tanks mode was thought of after making Tanks only mode. Turns out it's fun also :D
