The Trial and the Unlock

Is there a demo?

The download is the whole game, online included, for 8 matches. There is one build for everyone. After the 8th match the game asks for your itch.io download key.

How do I unlock it?

Buy the game on itch.io, then paste the download key (or the whole address of your download page) into Unlock the Full Game on the main menu. Your key is the long part at the end of your download page’s address, .../download/YOURKEY. The page is in your itch.io library, and in the email itch.io sent with your purchase.

How many devices?

One key unlocks up to 3 devices. If all 3 are taken, a device that has not checked in with the licence service for 30 days gives up its place to the new one by itself; if you cannot wait that long, write to us.

Does the full game need an internet connection?

No. Once unlocked, the licence is kept on your device and the game works offline. Only the unlock itself and online play talk to a server.

What does the licence service do?

When you paste your key, the game sends the licence service the key, your installation id and any licence the installation already holds. The service asks itch.io whether the key is real for this game, counts the devices on it, and sends back a licence signed for your installation. The licence holds a scrambled (one-way) form of your key, never the key itself.

What if I refund?

A refunded key is refused from then on. The installations it already unlocked keep working offline. Refunds go through itch.io; the Terms of Use have the details.

Playing

Can I play without other people?

Yes. Play Locally is you and some bots, and needs nothing else. Up to eight seats, and bots fill the empty ones.

Can I play on my own network?

Yes. Direct Connect is a game on your own network, by address, with no server of ours involved.

Can I play online?

Yes: friends lists by a short friend code, friends-only games you host yourself, and public games. An account has no email and no password. Rank points online need a public game with at least two humans. There is no chat, anywhere, on purpose.

Which platforms?

Windows, Linux and Android at launch. See System Requirements. A Mac version is not part of the launch.

Does it work with a controller?

Yes, on every platform, and with touch on Android. The controls are here.

What is Ultra?

An optional richer picture for desktops with a strong graphics card, chosen in Settings, Picture. The Graphics note has the details.

Why did my tank vanish into a hill?

It was buried. Being Buried is explained here. It will be back.

Privacy

No email, no password, no payment details, no chat, no ads and no analytics, and offline play sends us nothing. The rest is on the privacy page.
