Good game if playing against computer, but it's really fun to play with friend. I also added it to my new "Gameplay of New C64 Games from April 2024" video.
Good old "Return Fire" from the Playstation 1 or the one before it from the Amiga ("Firepower", I think was the name), with that kind of gameplay one can never go wrong. Good fun.
Having no native hardware split screen options on a C64 one is kind of limited on the art side, when trying to do smooth scrolling with an independent left and right display.
Not a bad game. It is pretty challenging against the computer, but two player mode might be fun if there are human opponents to play against. This might be good for parties :)

Now I'll have to make a cover for it...

Well, the C64 -is- 40 years old. It'll suffice.

I was thinking more Atari 2600 'Combat' or an elaborate take on TRON tanks level.. Eitherway, you're correct, can't go wrong.
Be interesting to see a modem version of this.

Really nice ! From a technical perspective , how are you achieving smooth scrolling in the middle and the bottom of the screen ?!?!?
Very nice game!
Awesome game !
very nice
Great game!
I would have loved to kick my brother’s butt in this back in the day!
A small but fun game 😎 It would be useful to place temporary mines to be able to cut off the opponent's way to get to our flag for a while 😁
