## What is Neon Tank Brigade?

Neon Tank Brigade is a 3D arcade game about defending a base you cannot afford to lose.

You drive one tank through a brick maze. Enemy tanks come in waves from the top of the board, and they are not only hunting you — they are hunting the eagle behind you. Lose your last life and the run ends. Lose the eagle and the run ends immediately, no matter how well you were doing.

Walls chip rather than vanish. Brick breaks a quarter-tile at a time, so every shot carves a slightly different corridor and the stage you finish in is one you made. Steel holds until you have earned the gun that cracks it.

MODES
• Arcade — 40 handcrafted stages.
• Roguelite — pick a perk between stages and see how far one run goes.
• 1P + Wingman — an AI partner who can be given one of your own lives.
• Online co-op and versus — a private 4-letter room code, or Quick Match against whoever is waiting.
• Daily — one seeded run, the same board for everyone that day.
• Weekly — a rotating twist that changes how a run plays.
• Garage — earn and equip a different chassis.

CONTROLS
• Touch — a thumbstick and a fire pad, sized for a real thumb and laid out clear of the notch and the home indicator.
• Controller — any Bluetooth gamepad. Left stick or D-pad to drive, A or right trigger to fire.
• Local two-player with a controller or keyboard attached.

CAMERAS
A top-down board view that shows the whole stage, a chase camera that rides behind the turret, and a first-person punch-in on the kill. Chosen before the run and changed whenever you like.

PLAYS OFFLINE
Every stage and every mode except the online rooms works with no connection at all. Nothing loads from a server while you play.

No ads. No accounts. No in-app purchases. No cross-app tracking.

Built by Emmanuel Dadem with React Three Fiber and WebGL, alongside the rest of the RetroPixel3D studio.


## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.0.4 — 2026-09-09

This release brings the iOS version number in line with the other stores. The game itself is the one you already have — the garage CONTRACTS and the water package (gunboats, icebreakers, thin ice and currents) arrived in the previous update.

Thanks for playing.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-08

THE GARAGE TAKES CONTRACTS.

Every chassis bought and scrap still piling up? Spend it. Arm a contract before a roguelite run to fight under a harder rule - every enemy a scout, a floor of ice, one life and no respawns - and that run pays a multiple of everything you earn. The steeper the wager, the sooner it pays for itself, and the fewer runs live to collect.

NEW ON THE WATER.

GUNBOAT - an armed raft. While you are afloat and under way, your wake drowns whatever is standing on the bank you pass. Park it and it kills nothing; take it onto dry land and it is just a pontoon.

ICEBREAKER - the frost powerup, backwards. Every sheet of ice in the burst shatters into open water, and anything standing on it that cannot swim goes down with it.

CURRENTS - rivers that carry you. Upstream is slow, downstream is fast, and letting go means drifting.

THIN ICE - cross it and it holds. Stop on it and it doesn't.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-09-05

Neon Tank Brigade now speaks your language.

- English, French and German, picked from your device the first time you play.
- Change it any time: SETTINGS > LANGUAGE. The switch is instant, no restart.
- Every screen is translated, from the menu and the controls reference to the boss callouts and the power-up guide.

### 1.0 — 2026-09-04
