- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.

Tankster is social game built using the Windows Azure Toolkit for Social Games. Tankster uses HTML5 and comes complete with reusable server side code and documentation. It also supports a variety of social interactions including messaging, wall posts, and comments; additionally, player achievements and game stats are presented on a live leaderboard so gamers can interact with each other. After all, what's a social game without being able to talk trash?
In this video, Wade Wegner introduces you to the game, shows you the different styles of play, and points you to how you can learn more about the Windows Azure Toolkit for Social Games.
