Overview

Tanks Battle Game is a single-player 3D action game in which the player controls a tank, fights AI-controlled enemies, collects pickups, and progresses through three combat levels.

The project focuses on gameplay programming and game-system integration, including player controls, enemy behavior, projectile combat, health, scoring, difficulty scaling, scene progression, UI, audio, and win/lose states.

Gameplay Features

• Player tank movement using physics-based Rigidbody movement
• Shooting with projectile ownership and collision-based damage
• Enemy detection, pursuit, rotation, and distance-based combat behavior
• Enemy firing based on range, angle, and cooldown
• Three selectable difficulty levels: Easy, Normal, and Hard
• Difficulty-based enemy movement speed and detection range
• Health system with damage and healing
• Health pickups
• Temporary speed-boost pickups
• Persistent score system across gameplay scenes
• Multi-level progression
• Boss encounter in the final level
• Win, game-over, and restart flow
• Music and sound-effect support
• In-game UI using TextMesh Pro
