It's playable. What I need first are more levels. (Second: better or more diverse graphics. [Third: better sounds.]) I learned quite fast what I had to do. Only problem was that I had to go back to the homepage to find out that pressing space does something. I also didn't realize by myself that the tank was a tank and that the dot was a guy. The level design is very good. 1) walk around 2) you have to block monster holes 3) oh, you can use the tank to block too? 4) think a bit longer now... The concept reminds me of Half Life 2 (was it Episode I?) where you have to block the ... alien-insect(?) holes by putting cars on them. I made some <a href="http://www.box.net/shared/r4p1yfgv3c#1:32190458" rel="nofollow">banners for this blog</a>. All yours. I do that by instinct sometimes you see.. o_O So I finally tried it.
