Form of the Destructor by diggersworld

[raw]
made by diggersworld for LD25 (JAM)
Requires XNA 4.0.

I used the challenge to learn how to use procedural generation to keep generating new elements in a game and provide a bit of randomness.

Play as the destructor and cause as much carnage as you can. Dodge tanks as they will take down your health. The game is incomplete but still quite fun. I will continue working on it for a future release.

The game is available from my website: http://www.thomasdigby.co.uk/diggersworld/games/form-of-the-destructor.zip

Enjoy.

The feel of destruction was maximal and the screaming superb

The game does not really work and lacks polish but it is incredibly fun somehow :D
Probably the sfxs combined with the simple graphics?

It's also weird that I can destory tanks and buildings but a single bullet hurts me :D

A little basic, but it's great fun smashing everything to bits. Good work.

Good, simple fun :) Gets repetitive after a while but that would be a nice basis for something more ambitious.

Loving your reviews so far guys, glad that the sound effects and splash screen have gone down a treat. =D

This has absolutely no depth to its gameplay whatsoever and I love it. Impressively satisfying destruction :)

Cool quick play game hehhe. I really liked the graphics and audio, and the mechanics are simple but fast, which makes the game addictive. Would have loved to squash the people hihihihih.

It was really fun. And these screaming sounds were very plausible.

I would reemplace the bad box with an old fashioned alien ship :)
