How to play

Defend your flag. Shoot enemy tanks.

Each level has 20 enemy tanks. You only have four lives, so don't let them shoot you!
Don't let them shoot your flag either: if that's hit, the game is over.

Controls

Player 1: WASD to move, B to shoot
Player 2: Arrow keys to move, M to shoot

Features

-Singleplayer and two players
-Three difficulties: easy, medium, hard
-Customizable guns and player colors
-Levels can be added with a simple .txt file
-Medium and hard difficulty uses BFS to find the shortest route to your flag, easy uses a randomly generated path
