Description

Ok, this is a TEST! Purely for feedback!! Rate it 1/5 for all I care. XD But aye, I'm learning AS and wanted to make a tank-based game of some sort, but before I do, I want to know peoples opinoins on the sort of controls I was planning on using for moveing the tank around, but please remember, this is a test, all CONSTRUCTIVE cirtisim is welcomed.
And yes, I am well aware I've not added in any boundary controls so the tank can go off-screen unfortunatly.
REMEMBER! VOTE 1/5!! =D

Addition to my description cause of Gummy3036: This isn't a game, let me make that clear, it's a test, you do nothing, you drive around, give me feed back on the type of control, that is all I'm asking, nothing more, nothing less, mmk?

How to Play

A = turn left + move forwards
D = turn right + move forwards
Z = turn left + move backwards
C = turn right + move bardwards

Hold A + D to move forward, no turning, same for Z + C but backwards.
Hold A + C to just turn around left, no moving, same for Z + D, but turning right.

Ok, so a lovely Belgian friend of mine informed me that AZERTY keyboard go like “BOOM! CRASH!! BANG!!” when you try to test this thing out, so looks like I’ma be adding in options for AZERTY keyboards, or QWERTY keyboards, also, I might add in arrow keys.

To tell you the plain truth, I've never seen anything like it before. And I mean that in a good way. These controls are very creative and I too would love to see you develop a full game with this control setup.

Ah, thanks for pointing that out, FooSai, I forgot I was going to do it the opposite way for each track. XD Being blonde isn't fun. =B

The tracks are the wrong way around, if you move the right track forwards on its own for example it would turn to the left but yours turns right. I dont really feel like explaining why. you can check this yourself somewhere on the internet if you like.
Reversing the left track and forwarding the right track will make it spin on the spot anti-clockwise while doing the reverse would be clockwise.
Might help if you want to do it properly :P
