Bubble Tanks 2 is a shooter game in which you control a tank made of bubbles. It is the sequel to Bubble Tanks.
Gameplay[]
You control a tank and the goal of the game is to find and kill the big bad tank bosses. You must travel through giant bubbles, destroying enemy tanks while looking for the final adversary. Your tank is made from bubbles and bubbles are your ammo, experience and life. When you shoot at enemies, their bubbles break off and your tank can collect them. Collecting bubbles enables your tank to grow and evolve, while taking damage causes you to lose bubbles. As you gain levels, you constantly evolve and get ever better weapons. If you lose too many bubbles, your tank will regress to previous upgrade levels.
In Arena Mode, you test your skills against a horde of your choice. The Bubble-o-Pedia lets you view your conquests and learn the names of your vanquished foes. You choose between any of the enemies that you have already defeated and determine how many of each you wish to face. You also get to pick from any evolution upgrade that your tank has had in previous games in Normal mode.
The controls are simple, you move with WASD or arrow keys and shoot with the mouse. Once you acquire a secondary weapon, you can activate it with the Space button. There is no save function in the game.
Upgrade Paths[]
Once you have enough bubbles to gain a level, you choose which path of evolution your tank will take. There are 26 different tanks to use.
Starting from the tank you are on, you can upgrade to any tank directly below or diagnal from your tank's square.
