# Tank Trap

**Tank Trap**, formerly Untitled Sand Game, is a Wii U homebrew game made in a game jam with a simple premise. You control a drill tank in a multiplayer arena with dynamic, 2D physics-based terrain, inspired by games like Noita.

Navigate through sand and lava, collect (explosive) items to use against opponents, and watch as the landscape changes with each interaction.

Create traps and obstacles for your opponents to fall into, or use the terrain to burn your enemies in all the chaos.

A sandbox mode is also available for solo play.

## Features

 - Play Solo In Sandbox Mode

 - Battle Up To 10+ Players Online

 - Fully Multiplayer Physics Simulation

 - Random Item Pickups For Terrain Manipulation

 - Cool, Dynamic Shader Effects (made possible with [CafeGLSL](https://github.com/Exzap/CafeGLSL))

 - Works (only) on Wii U and Cemu
