Sassy Catapult update, v0.2

Now you can feel like in seventh heaven, or even more, since we added 6 new maps to the game! The new scenes widened our horizon and brought brand new songs and sound effects, and also we couldn’t resist to expand our arsenal of tanks even further, so added something awesome and powerful: the Catapult Tank! The AI behind our tanks has gone through significant improvement, meaning that by now they all developed their own battle tactics, so you better keep up! If you’re ready for the new stuff just check our fresh INTRO animation, get you buddies on the couch and test the game. Or just keep playin’ with the bots!
