Scorched Island 3D

kost writes: " There is clone of popular DOS game called Scorched Earth but this one is in three dimensions (very good concept). It is called Scorched Island 3D and you can download it here from FTP server or you can see some screenshots. It is a game where you try to shoot your opponent over the hill with different weapons and such. Disadvantages of the game include lack of sound and network play. " Ah, Scorched Earth. I spent a lot of quality time perfecting my angles to play the crap out of my friends and neighbors. It's good to see this game back. (michael: Enemy has rubber shield (the purple one), and is in a depression. Solution: napalm, contact triggers, fire shot that hits shield and immediately goes into the dirt next to him. Napalm pours out, fills up, and pours into the tiny hole in the rubber shield created by the shot hitting it. A single sweet second where the entire inside of his shield is full of napalm, held in by the shield, then, FOOM! Toasty.)

    "Death's Head? DEATH'S HEAD?" You're insane! You'll kill us all!"

    And I said:

    "Exactly. See you in hell, punk"

    ..and then my tank got zapped by lightning, and the wind was blowing MY direction, so of course I winded up blowing myself up.

    Does anyone know what good the Tracer did?
