Tiny Tank: Dawn of Steel Upgrade System & UI [Developer Showcase]
Support and price drop
Hello everyone, we are very sorry to announce that Tiny Tank: Dawn of Steel won’t be receiving anymore updates. We have already started working on 3 new projects what will be Announced on the official YouTube channel and on Discord in the coming weeks.
Why no more updates? Tiny Tank was our first project we released on steam, the reception to it has been mostly positive. We have talked many times about new implementations but the simple fact is the internal Code, mechanics, and systems are extremely messy. Many times we have asked ourselves “wouldn’t it just be easier to start over” and yes it would. By the end of 2022 we ended up breaking more than we fixed with each major update. The game is still playable but you can clearly see the game could have been so much more. On the bright Side the game will be free to play for the next couple of weeks. For those who have purchased the game we have something very special for you in mind with our next big project ;) keep an eye out on the discord and YouTube for more information.
The future of Disco Entertainment Over the last 2 years Disco Entertainment has grown into something truly special. So far 2 published game and 3 more in development. Short films and a web Series also in pre production also the New partnership with two indie game studios. Without You guys playing and support us we wouldn’t have gotten this far.
