Oh man, your comment made me remember my first game that was just like tank wars. I always called it banana wars because you were 2 apes that threw bananas at each other.
Just found it… “QBasic - gorrilas” https://www.retrogames.cz/play_654-DOS.php. So many memories playing this against my dad, punching a hole straight through some buildings at high velocity because he could never figure out how to do adjust his angle and velocity to account for the shifting wind speeds.
Tank wars - MS DOS
Probably closely followed by Lemmings, Commander Keen & Duke Nukem.

Yup it came as a demo when they shipped Qbasic with DOS 3.5 I think…
The first game I ever modified.
