Battery Acid Games has released its first shareware title — a new Mac game called Mountain Tanks 1.0. It costs $14 and a demo download is now available.
Taking a page from Scorched Earth and similar classics, Mountain Tanks is a ballistics-based game in which you man a tank against up to five other humans or computer-controlled players. You can use weapons like rockets, grenades and more as you take aim and try to pummel your opponent, on randomly generated maps that use realistic physics.
Released as a Universal Binary that runs natively on Intel or PowerPC-based Macs, Mountain Tanks requires Mac OS X v10.3.9 or later, G4/700MHz or faster and ATI Radeon 7000 or Nvidia GeForce2 MX or better 3D graphics (including Intel GMA950, found in MacBooks and Mac minis).
