Heavy Artillery
Heavy Artillery drops you onto a pixelated warzone where your only objective is to outsmart and outgun a rival gunner. Each round, you adjust the launch angle and blast force of your cannon, aiming to land a direct hit on the enemy's position while accounting for gravity, wind, and terrain. It's a pure test of geometry and foresight, with every shot bringing you closer to victory or defeat. The game strips away all distractions, offering a straightforward but deeply entertaining duel that keeps you coming back for another round. The minimalist visuals focus your attention on the numbers and the trajectory arc, making each successful bombardment feel genuinely rewarding. Whether you have a minute or an hour, the quick pacing and escalating tension make it an ideal pick for a brief gaming session.

What is Heavy Artillery
Take control of a field gun and engage in a duel of calculation and nerve. Heavy Artillery is a classic two-player-style battle that demands sharp eyes and a steady hand.
How to Play
Point your cannon by adjusting the angle and setting the launch power, then fire and see where your shell lands. After the shot, the turn passes to your opponent, and you alternate until one of you is blown to bits.
Tips for Playing
- Start with a medium angle and moderate power to get a feel for the projectile's arc.
- Pay close attention to the terrain's slope; shells can bounce or roll after impact.
- If the wind is strong, compensate by aiming into the wind rather than fighting it.
- Use your first few shots to test the distance and adjust your aim incrementally.
- Don't always go for maximum power; a well-placed medium shot can be more effective.
