About

Tankies is a  turn-based strategy game that is an homage to my favorite old Mac game: strategic conquest.

I played this at the meetup yesterday! I’m also working on a recreation/homage/spiritual successor to an old mac game (spin doctor), though it isn’t ready to share yet.

Nice to meet you yesterday! Let me know when your game's up and I'll give it a whirl. Heh... literally.
