Tank Game is a casual 3D Shooter about a tank and a helicopter saving the world from evil robotic vehicles (well, it's not quite that dramatic, but I need some sort of story line to go with the game). You control the helicopter and you go around blowing up the enemy bases. Your base will send out tanks to help defend against the enemy tanks which come after to blow up your base.
So far it only has one level because I just changed the gameplay around a lot and I don't know where to go from here. I need ideas on what to with the game so vote on the poll to the right and/or send me an email to

Requirements
PPC / Intel, Mac OS X 10.3 or later, 256MB of RAM, 2GHz Processor.
I just noticed that I had deleted the game file a few months ago when I switched the location of my website (which means the download link was broken). It has now been fixed.
A mission based games like Zeewolf 2 (Amiga) would be welcome - rescuing hostages, sinking ships, downing helicopters and fighter planes. Like tank game you were in control of a helicopter, but could land and switch to a tank when necessary.
Smooth gameplay on an iBook G4. Though it's completely silent and the enemies are rather hard to kill.
Also, no way to exit game once started without quitting... no "Pause Menu"
Needs a bit of work.
[Version 1.0]

I also need a new name for the game (I already have a few people suggest some new names but I would like to have a few more ideas (and no I am not going to call it Helicopter Game, I want something more original)).
If you have not played the earlier versions of Tank Game then you can download them (mac only) by going to my website (just click on the blue Mem Dixy on the right).
