Our take on Treadnauts

Instead of keeping tanks on a flat battlefield, the game turns arena surfaces into routes for combat. Wall travel, aerial jumps, bullet interception, and changing physics rules replace the fixed-position exchanges common to many tank games.

What is Treadnauts?

Treadnauts is a competitive tank game built around platform-fighter movement and physics.

Tanks can drive across walls, leap with boosters or rocket jumps, slide without friction, and shoot incoming bullets from the air. Matches support 2–4 players in arenas with distinct mechanics and interactive physics objects. Solo play includes computer-controlled tanks with three difficulty levels and a Target Test mode with medals and global leaderboards. Online multiplayer supports solo players or duos. The game includes laser guns, grappling hooks, homing shells, and other power-ups, alongside modifiers such as zero gravity, slow motion, and chaos mode. Progression includes levels, maps, and characters to unlock.
