The Gameplay Loop
Because Toy Tanks is grounded in physics, much of the moment to moment gameplay involves mastering the movement. There are two main ways to do damage in Toy Tanks: Shooting and Dashing.
Both of these mechanics are in someway tied to you speed and direction. Shooting will be more effective if you are moving in the same direction your aiming, this is because part of your momentum is carried on to the shot.
Dashing is a bit more nuanced. In order to do damage with a Dash, you must make a direct hit onto an enemy tank. In addition to doing damage, this will also fling the enemy tank away from you, rendering it vulnerable for the next few moments. Dashes 'reload' much faster then shots, so if your willing to get aggressive, they have the potential to be much more devastating. Dashing also provides the player with a few frames of invincibility, so get in there!
