Hardcore Gamer: In Moonshot, players control a tank and must destroy other tanks with carefully angled shots. However, in this game, the tanks are perched atop tiny planets in space. Gameplay is fast but still strategic — especially if you can pull off a ridiculous trick shot on a friend’s tank.
Knerds went to PAX East and saw some awesome games, one of which was Moonshot, a physics heavy, beautifully styled, tank battler.
Local multiplayer games always have a tendency to stick out at events like PAX, and Moonshot by developer Pump Action Games is no exception.

With multiple modes and an addicting competitive gameplay, Moonshot is an addicting physics-based game that is still a little rough around the edges, but provides plenty of promise.
Quick show of hands - who here remembers Scorched Earth?
Usually that question generates crickets. Most gamers think of the popular Worms series when they are talking about a physics-based game of this nature. Now, Moonshot does a lot of things very differently than both of those titles. For once, this is much more of an action game. Like Scorched Earth, you have different kinds of weapons and you have to take shots at your opponents that will arc and weave based on a variety of physics-based factors.
