Killer Tank Demo

ElectroTECH's FTP directory has the new playable Killer Tank Demo (as four files: KTApr99.exe, KTApr99.r00 - KTApr99.r02). Here's the deal on KT, according to ElectroTECH:

'Killer Tank' is a fast and furious 'gore and fun' 3D-accelerated game featuring destructive tank action in a number of diverse photorealistic environments. The title is developed by ElectroTECH's 'Alter Ego' team since September '98, and is due to release end-Q3 '99 by a yet unnamed publisher. The first technological demo of 'Killer Tank' spread over WWW in December '98 enjoyed a very warm welcome from the web gaming community. It had but the only major fault, though excusable for that early stage of development, namely the lack of real gameplay challenge. The current work progress demo is set to improve this. Some basic modules of the program - enemies' AI and pathfinding, physics and destruction effects, Direct 3D and EAX support - are still in works. So, this is NOT an official pre-release demo, and should not be taken as such. Our only aim at this pre-Alpha stage is to show a bit of gameplay as it is conceived in the final version. Download the demo and enjoy. Your comments are appreciated (please address to: nataly@electrotech.ru, cc: landa@electrotech.ru).

ftp.home.electrotech.ru/users/eltech Files: KTApr99.exe, KTApr99.r00 - KTApr99.r02 (self-extracting archive in 4 parts) The new demo features one single-player mission, one new weapons, new enemies, and some nice visual effects. System requirements: P-200 MMX or higher, 32 Mb RAM, ca. 50 Mb HD space, Sound, Mouse, Windows '95, Windows'98, NT. Important! The program requires a 3dfx-compatible card: Voodoo 1-2, or Banshee. It is not tested on Voodoo 3 yet, but most probably it will work OK. Riva, ATI, Matrox, S3 and other Direct 3D boards are NOT supported in this version. Aiming modes: You can try two different control types / aiming modes - 'strife' and 'direct'. By entering console command (to change aiming mode during gameplay): 1) press ~ key (tilda, console activation); 2) type 'aimmode 1' or 'aimmode 0'; 3) press Enter.
