Overview
Overhead-view tank game. During play, the tank is centered on the screen, and as you move, the background rotates and zooms. Two joysticks control movement of the tank (forward = both joysticks up, etc.), and each stick is fitted with a trigger button for the cannon. If you touch a 'jump pad' your tank will launch into the air for a short while (Nice zooming effect) and you can drop bombs on enemies while remaining out of their range of fire.

Coin-Op Overview
The PCB is housed inside of a wire mesh cage, and an external volume knob and test switch are mounted behind the coin door. The cabinet itself is quite narrow, but weighs in at 295 lbs!
