App Details
Tank Trap is a fully original Wii U homebrew game made in a game jam as a Wii U tech demo. You control a drill tank in a fully destructable, dynamic multiplayer arena, inspired by games like Noita.
Drill through sand and lava, find items to destroy opponents, and watch as the landscape changes with each item used. Create traps and obstacles for your opponents to fall into, or use the terrain to burn your enemies in all the chaos.
A sandbox mode is also available for solo play.
## Features
Play solo in Sandbox Mode
Battle up to 4+ players online
Fully multiplayer physics simulation
Random item pickups for terrain manipulation
Interactive title screen to play around with the physics and materials
Dynamic shader effects (made possible with CafeGLSL)
How To Play

Changelog
v1.0
Tank Trap is having its first (public) release, now that it runs at 1080p at a full 60FPS on the Wii U!
Born in a game jam and originally intended as a tech demo alongside the then-new CafeGLSL shader compiler, Tank Trap has a fully destroyable terrain with plenty of items to facilitate that destruction.
As for gameplay, there's an online multiplayer mode where you can find a bunch of items to destroy one another while trying to not dig yourself an inescapable hole. You can also just enjoy playing it alone in the sandbox mode or mess around with spawning materials on the interactive title screen.
The gameplay isn't very balanced, nor is the game that fun to play for a longer period of time. But there's hopefully also something for other people to learn from, inside the codebase, considering it is a small-ish 2D game engine and there aren't that many other Wii U GX2 homebrew games out there (for now!).
We hope you give it a shot or learn something from it!
