The graphical style you went for really stood out to me, and I liked your interpretation of the theme; solid, and not distracting from the core concept of your game. Two of my criticisms are that I feel like the tank should have more health OR there should be less bullets (either that, or I suck at these games :\/), and that I feel the path to the end of the game should be a bit more straight-forward.
