However, games have a limited ability to do this. It’s a great way to start things off with a bang.The music for a non-interactive story, like a film or TV show, is expected to change and adapt to the action taking place. They can be difficult to find in BattleTanx’s maps, but there’s a faction that actually starts with one in multiplayer. A blastwave rips through the entire level, crumpling buildings in its wake. Air raid sirens go off, then the game’s draw fog turns a sickly yellow-green. Alex Werner brought so much talent and creativity to BattleTanx, without him we don’t have a hit. The nuke was definitely going to make an appearance in the game. It was everything I was hoping for and more. Alex Werner was the engineer who created that VFX and when he showed it to me my jaw dropped. “The feasibility of this weapon all came down to how we could make it fun - keep the battle going even after a nuke was deployed and pull off what had to be the biggest and most spectacular visual effect in the entire game. “The team was just trying to push things as far as they could go, and you can’t push an explosion further than a nuke,” said Mendheim. Look if you’re going to buy into Queen Lords then having a lot of tanks in the world isn’t that much of a stretch as far as plausibility goes.” “It’s a Mad Max type of world, so the gangs are salvaging and rebuilding military armor.
But why are there so many tanks lying around? Being a warped and deranged designer, I thought trying to capture women would be a lot more interesting for 13 to 18-year-old boys than capturing a generic flag.”įair enough. I came up with an idea that a virus killed 99% of the female population of Earth, and after a nuclear apocalypse, the world was left in ruins, roving bands of gangs fight for the few remaining women who are proclaimed Queen Lords.
The storyline was just a means to add a narrative to the capture the flag gameplay. “One reviewer said, ‘ BattleTanx has the strangest story we’ve ever heard of but the gameplay is no joke.’ Would I do the same story now? Probably not without massive changes but back in the nineties… well it was still way over the top.
