The spread and speed could be increased, it's the best option I think. I'll see about them when I get my WidgetRacer -widget done :]
Planning a few updates... Difficulty increase in later levels because defending was too easy New weapon option: lasers. You get three laser turrets instead of missiles. They have unlimited ammo, but have a small recharge time between shots and you need to hit almost directly to the missile for a kill. Highscores will be separated between missile and laser modes. Also, I thought about adding custom score lists, so you could have your own scorelist with your buddies. Likely coming next week. Post your thoughts and if you have any features ideas, feel free to post them too.
Graz for that 1000€ you won ! go Finland and by the way this is kinda cool widget
New version up! If you like my widget, tell everyone you know to get it to support me in WWC :]
Runs pretty flickering on my Opera 9.02 (with 100% CPU usage) I am using Windows XP (sp1) On a latop with the following Specs: 1 gig ram, nvidia geforce go 6200 graphic card pentium M 740 processor with 1.73 GHz My Linux machine with an Athlon 2000XP and 768 MB Ram is slow, but not flickering
nice game......but theres a little compability problem with the controls.......some (nonenglish) countries dont have zxc at the lower left-hand corner of the keyboard but yxc instead. maybe you could think of changing them to asd or xcv or anything else without z and y.... greetz basti2015
zomg.. it's the bomb!!! thank you for all the efforts into this nice game. I have an idea. can you have the option of 2 players? just like the old atari game. one is attacking and one is defending. the one attacking is a flaying helicopter that is throwing missiles (or paratroopers) and the one down is defending the city. if it's impossible, then at least can we have 2 turn based game, where each player has a city and has a number of lives. when both players (could be even more than 2 players, optionnally) expire their lives, the winner will be the one with highest combined total score. PS: One last thing. If you need any help with an extra juice on the graphics, please let me know, I will be more than glad to help. it's my game there!
Love IT!
I like it, just a question, with the new laser feature, if you fire all 3 lasers at each incoming bomb, you get 30 points instead of 10. Did you design it to work that way to compensate for the lack of missle bonus?
Pisces222: Thanks.. the multiplayer idea is nice, but it would be a bit of problematic to have the game go in sync for both players. Worry not, I'm working on some multiplayer features. darklord48: that's an unintentional feature. I'm not sure about considering it a bug, though, as you can't do that in the later levels or you won't be able to hit everything in time...
Multiplayer scrapped. - wasn't designed for many players from the start - difficult to keep game in sync I'm working on my next widget game now which I will be releasing shortly. It's going to be a tank/cannons game in the style of Scorched Earth. At the moment the game has deformable terrain, multiple weapons, hot-seat multiplay and computer opponents. This game is more suited for network play as the final "result" of the turn can be sent over the network and synchronized better. I will probably release the first version without network features and start working on them after that. Reason for this is that I'll get more feedback and possible bug reports so I can fix them before adding network play.

The spiritual successor of Opera Command Network Play - TankWar Online - is now up http://widgets.opera.com/widget/5988
Hi. I'm new to this-widgets,games ect. when i'm playing 'opera command', my cursor dissappears on the game board. it works fine anywhere else on my desktop or with a window open, but when i pass it over the game itself, i can't see where it is! it makes aiming difficult. Anything I can do to correct this? McVee
Very nice implementation of this classic! The last time I played that on a Schneider CPC And after finding the QZERTZ-keyboard version my fingers stopped aching on my German keyboard. Would you mind using both keys for the left tower in the following update? This would make the installation much easier.
XZC are absolutely not convenient for some keyboards. May be you make some day modification so that we can choose the letters ? Like for me, YXC will be much more convenient. Other than that, thank you very much for this excellent game.
Simply sweet!
Great! Old Atari's Missile Command is immportal. Laser weapon is also great, new idea.
AAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE To be contineud... (lol)
