How to play

  1. Adjust elevation from 15 to 85 degrees and power from 200 to 500. Wind accelerates shells sideways.
  2. Explosions damage nearby turrets and remove terrain. Each turret starts with 100 health; destroying the opponent ends the duel.
  3. Solo pits you against a computer gunner. Local mode is pass-and-play: both players use the same controls on their turn.

Make your move

  • Left/right adjust angle; up/down adjust power; Space fires.
  • Touch or mouse: hold the labeled on-screen direction and action buttons.
  • Choose Solo or Local 2 players in settings before starting. To change mode later, restart first. P2 uses WASD and F; artillery players can share P1 controls.
  • Stage progress is saved in this browser. Pause, reload and language changes preserve the current round. Physical devices have not been verified.

A small head start

  • Use the short dotted aiming guide to see your initial direction.
  • Watch where the first shell lands, then change only angle or power.
