They actually do nothing except protect the more important cubes of your hovercraft. Normal: these cubes come in different colors.As a consolation, though, you cause slightly more damage when ramming enemy vehicles. Getting one destroyed will cause the weapon you’ve assigned to it to be unusable. These blocks serve as your weapon hard points. They’re the red ones with the cross-hair symbol on all sides. Weapon: you start with two of these but get up to five after levelling-up.Getting these destroyed will cause your vehicle to tilt and risk touching the road. Placement of these cubes determine your hovercraft’s balance. They’re the yellow ones with a diamond inside a broken square symbol on all sides. Thruster: you have a maximum of six of these.Cubes not connected to the core fall off. It’s the purple one with the lightning symbol on all sides. Core: there’s only one core block in your craft.

Your hovercraft consists of different types of cubes: core, thruster, weapon and normal. It’s fun to see your hovercraft still showing some heart after enduring a heavy beating.

You get damaged by colliding with an enemy vehicle, receiving a blow from hostile weaponry, getting hit by flying debris, scraping a wall, going off the path and touching the road. You touch the left and right edges of your screen to steer.Įach time you get damaged, your hovercraft loses cubes. Weapons either shoot straight ahead or lock on nearby enemies. Sounds pretty simplistic, right? But it promised a similar experience to Gummi Ship: design your hovercraft then see how well it performs.īasically, you destroy enemy hovercrafts by shooting at them or by ramming them. You are in a futuristic highway patrol hovercraft and your goal is to blast baddies with your weapons.

I used to spend countless hours building and play-testing space ships – from sleek, efficient, star-blasting death machines to the totally silly and hilarious jokes from outer space.Īnd then several years into the present, I came across this game – Hovercraft Takedown. There’s a ton of mini-games in Kingdom Hearts 2 but there’s one particular game that I liked most – Gummi Ship.
