Felt obligatory to write a proper review for this game.
This is a good game, just not centered to the most common steam users out there.
Couple things to note:
First - You NEED a controller for it. No exceptions.
Second - you need friends, controllers for each of them, preferably a coach and a big TV.
Third - like Gang Beast, chaos is a significant element in this game. Much more fun with 8 players than 3 or 2.
Many reviews diss this game for not suiting their need without justifying it's main audience is couch gaming.
So, here goes the actual review:
Gameplay mechanics are good and simple. The UI could use clearer explanations for sure, but everyone knows the control in a minute.
Map / gamemode variety is just enough or at bare minimum, repetitive yes, but doesn't bother us.
Game pacing is *very* good, where the balance between quick reflexes and tactics are strikingly neat.
One suggestion though - if winning and losing matters more and provide an incentive to players, this game would be fantastic for friends to get together and just casually battle each other. Something like a winner’s screen with summary of funny stats would suffice.
Already a very fun game consider the price, just need some more polish here and there.

Janky Tanky Fun!
Also, not a lot of 8 player mayhem local games out there. This and Knight Squad have both been really fun!

Janky Tanks has a similar gameplay to Smash Bro's - do damage, knock people off. Higher damage = you fly farther!
But with indestructable tanks!
Played the demo, and wound up playing the demo for over an hour with a few people. Well worth the $2.50 I got on sale.
For $5, I think I'd like to see a little bit more, maybe at least 1-2 more modes?
Even still, lots of fun and I am keen to see how it develops further.
- Hot Tip: Set the water level to rise in 10 - seconds, and it becomes a king-of-the-hill panic for higher ground. It becomes more about how well you control your tank, as opposed to knocking others off!
