Mini Tanks

One mouse, two tiny tanks, and a trajectory you'll swear you had right—Mini Tanks turns local two-player artillery into a loud, crater-pocked grudge match.

First shell never lands. You'll flick your mouse up a degree, click, and the shot sails three tank-lengths past your buddy, punching a neat crater in the hillside. That's Mini Tanks: a tight, local two-player artillery duel that runs on little more than a mouse, a left click, and whatever bravado you bring to the keyboard. Each round puts two pint-sized tanks on opposite ridges, angled just enough to feel unfair. On your turn, you line up the barrel with your mouse and commit with a click. The shell arcs slowly, giving you just enough time to regret the shot before it smashes into dirt or clangs off armor. Tiny environmental details matter—a low hill can eat your shell completely, while a downhill angle adds unexpected range. Wins come from tiny adjustments: one pixel lower, a half-second's hesitation. I've burned more lunch breaks than I care to count trading shots in this thing. It's not deep, and it doesn't need to be. The tension lives in the pause between click and impact, especially when the other player is watching the same screen, already grinning because they know they've got you dialed in next turn. That back-and-forth rhythm, simple as it is, keeps you clicking for one more round.

Very simple! Use your mouse to aim. Click LEFT MOUSE button to fire.

Nudge your mouse a few pixels at a time; the difference between a clean hit and total miss is tiny. Aim for the crest of a hill, not the tank itself, and let the arc drop the shell onto their roof. Use terrain as a shield—parking behind a ridge forces your opponent to overcorrect and waste shots. Remember your last click angle. Even a bad shot gives you data for the next one. Don't rush the left click on your turn; nobody's timer is running, so breathe and re-check the barrel. If you're stuck hitting short, raise the barrel higher than feels comfortable; the arc will do the work.
