The briefing

About this game

Blazing Thunder is a no-frills action shooter released in 1989. Players control a tank that moves through levels while enemy soldiers emerge from hiding places and attack in waves.

Enemies can be defeated by shooting them or running them over. Parts of the scenery obstruct the route and must be destroyed before the level can be cleared. Each stage ends with a boss encounter, including a large tank in the first level whose guns must be disabled.
