Desktop Destruction

Smash, saw, burn, shoot and paint your own desktop: every tool acts on every material the way it really would.

Desktop Destruction

The game's intro: its name thuds out of a desktop letter by letter, then bursts into pixels

Desktop Destruction captures your desktop and freezes it into a picture, then hands you the tools. Make it glass and it cracks, then shatters. Make it wood and it splits along its grain, metal and it dents and tears into petals, paper and it tears, folds and burns, concrete and it pocks and crumbles, flesh and it bruises, splits and bleeds. Punch through and there is a room behind it, lit through the holes you made.

Play the challenges to unlock each tool's path, then take it all to Sandbox.
