TankPunk is a fast-paced top-down multiplayer battler where you build your war machine mid-match from a pile of cannons, arcane weapons, gadgets, shields, curses, and brutal close-range contraptions. Every player starts with the same empty tank hull. No built-in cannon. No fixed class. Your build is shaped during the match by the choices you make. Farm neutral camps, gather Experience, and draft new parts for your tank from a rotating selection of items. Slot in long-range cannons, rapid autoguns, spinning flails, spectral blades, mines, blink sigils, repair systems, and more. Mix offense, defense, and utility across 8 modular slots to create your own fighting style. Choose between two opposing paths of power: Technology — steam-forged cannons, reinforced plating, mines, engines, sustained firepower Magic — arcane emitters, shields, silencers and distortion But there’s a catch: Magic and Technology do not grow together. They compete. Your tank’s alignment shifts as you equip items, pushing your build deeper into one side while weakening the other. Specialize for maximum power, or walk the dangerous line of a hybrid build. Combat is automatic — your weapons fire when enemies enter range. Victory comes from movement, timing, positioning, and smart drafting, not manual aiming. Features Fast-paced top-down multiplayer tank combat Modular tank building during the match 8 item slots for weapons, active items, and passive upgrades No fixed classes — build your tank as you play Auto-firing combat focused on positioning and timing Magic vs Technology alignment system Experience-based item drafting with meaningful build choices Ranged and melee weapons , from cannons to spinning flails Active abilities like shields, mines, boosts and blinks In TankPunk , your tank is not chosen before the battle. It is forged in it. Also, despite the fact that we haven't yet received an official compatibility check for the Steam Deck, we believe everything works fine on this device.
