It's a little rough round the edges, and the keyboard input goes a bit funky sometimes. I need to look a bit closer at that. Requires two players (or a dextrous person to play against themselves) as there is no AI.

It's my first game *ever*, and I'm also new to the whole TorqueScript thing, so constructive criticism is welcome.

The graphics are all mine (with the exception of the explosion when a player dies, that was taken from the T2D example. All sounds are freeware.

Err... would you mind posting the code for us to see anyway? Pretty please? :) And I'm a Mac user so I can't run the compiled scripts.

Woo, that reminds me of Sopwith for the PC. Just add some factories to bomb and you'd have a remake of what was an awesome CGA game! ;)

Good job. :)
