TankWar on Unite

TankWar on Unite is a multiplayer cannons game you can play online with your friends

TankWar on Unite is a TankWar Online server for Opera Unite.

TankWar Online is a cannons game originally developed as an Opera Widget.
Features:

  • Up to 8 players
  • Different types of weapons
  • Destroyable terrain
  • Computer opponents
  • Online multiplayer


The online game server uses a custom JavaScript bayeux server. The server library is available on GitHub.

This is a beta release! This means there are some problems remaining, but the game is playable.

Known issues:
  • Computer players sometimes start in the sky - Fixed
  • Online multiplayer mode does not work in any other browser than Opera - Fixed
  • Online mode may sometimes break. If this happens, restart the Unite application from the Unite panel - Fixed
  • Online mode does not work with the admin URL. Always use id.yourname.operaunite.com, not admin.id.yourname.operaunite.com - Fixed
  • Players cannot join password protected games - Fixed
  • The missile trajectory is sometimes incorrect. This is only a rendering issue - The actual damage etc. is correct and synced.

If the game causes Opera to crash, try the following:
  1. Go to Tools, Opera Unite Server, Configure...
  2. Click Advanced Settings...
  3. Untick Use UPnP port forwarding from my router

Crashing was an issue in a specific release of Opera, and may already have been fixed.

add a "URL address" for this game so other non-opera users can play this game as well

Yes, the wind displaying should be more clear. Before I read the comments, I thought there is no wind in this game.

One of the best apps for Unite!

not bad, but in my opinion the original tanks (created in 2004 I believe) was better.

but then again, this game does show a lot of promise, and with some tweaking could end up being better than tanks.

Nice game^^

i did have the idea of p2p - having all tankwar apps connect to each other. might be doable but not really sure if it would work very well

edit: wrote prev comment from phone, didn't notice your last question FataL... To create a multiplayer game by yourself with multiple browsers, you have to use your local host name and your unite name. For example, I would use home.zomg.operaunite.com/tankwar/ in one browser and localhost:8840/tankwar/ in another.

Currently you'll just have to pass the link to your friends. Not quite sure how else it should/could work.
First of all it is really hard to find anyone who wants to play or at least run this app. This is Unite service as a whole problem, and not particular application.
I see 215 instances running. But where are they? How to find them? There also only five links present on sidebar, and they are not changing after page reload, so they are not random, but just first 5 from 215 I suppose.

Zomg, ok :smile:

How would you change it to make it easier for others to join?
