Credits
This is a solo project made entirely by me, Clayton Grange. I have had a long love for games that can bring people together. While this game may be about tanks and shooting, the main appeal I see is a way for friends and family to work cooperatively in a fun, non-toxic environment. I am self-taught in programming and this is one of the projects I'm making to learn the process of making games.
