Scorched 3D is one hot battle game

“Scorched 3D is a modernization of the classic DOS game Scorched
Earth. It’s a simple turn-based artillery game and a real-time
strategy game in which players can counter each other’s weapons
with creative accessories, shields, and tactics.

“Game play is easy: jump into your tank, aim the turret, adjust
the power and trajectory, select a weapon, and shoot. Weapons and
accessories lend themselves to different tactics depending on the
situation and opposition. After each round you can buy new weapons
and accessories with the prize money you won during the round, or
keep the money to gain interest. Weapon choice and money management
play large parts in game strategy.

“Gavin Camp, the game’s developer, used to play Scorched Earth
with a group of friends at university. He rediscovered it years
later on a boring airplane flight, and began thinking about
creating a modern take on it, with 3-D graphics, but true to the
original feel.”
