There’s nothing more satisfying that being able to gradually break something up, with different graphical layers of damage, without having to think about opponents getting in the way, like annoying mosquitoes.
So, Lemmy, any recommendations besides the bonus levels on Street Fighter II and Final Fight? Edit: Preferably not FPS.
There’s an old game called Carmageddon where you could wreck people and other cars pretty well without interrupting.
Always enjoyed a good Death Race type game.
I always wanted a true updated Autoduel/Carwars arena combat game with distructble vehicles and locations.
Hardspace: Shipbreaker has you tearing old spaceships apart for salvage. A lot of it is sorting your space recyclables, but towards the end of story mode
Spoiler
You get to absolutely trash a wreck, recovering 0 salvage value, to show management what for.
Thanks for the rec!
Blast Corps for N64. IIRC, the whole point of the game was to use different heavy equipment to destroy stuff.
Now we’re talking, thanks!
Pretty much all of the Lego games are about destroying everything to get parts to build more things.
I only played the first Lego Batman, but I don’t remember it. Would that count?
Lego Worlds is the best for lego destruction.
Thanks.
Love the humour after this one too

dude, you even had the steel pipe and couldn’t finish that off? 😉
I think I did, with time left on the clock!
oh oh, yeah! that’s the car owner, I remember. well done 😄
Thanks, I think it’s a work of art even if the owner doesn’t appreciate it yet 😄
Punch a tree in Minecraft?
Valid, just maybe not as detailed as I’d like due to the blockiness.
Not retro, but Instruments of Destruction is made by one of the Red Faction devs. Also check out Abriss.
Both are machine building games with a focus on destruction. Instruments of Destruction does have a ton of prebuilt vehicles though if building isn’t your thing. The he campaign is also pretty easy to plow through to unlock the prebuilts.
Both look good, but I appreciate the mention of the prebuilt vehicles because building isn’t my thing. Great comment, thanks.
Red Faction 3 is third person and really let’s you break buildings and structures.
Demolition Inc? Scratched that sort of itch for me a while back, still available on Steam
That looks like fun, thanks :)
It’s only a few years old, but Teardown is all about demolishing neighborhoods.
