About Critical Annihilation

Critical Annihilation is a Twin-Stick SHMUP (Shoot-em Up) made entirely out of tiny voxels. We take advantage of voxel technology to hype up the explosive gameplay. Everything is destructible to its core. As your home planet gets invaded by aliens you decide to take up arms with the rest of the planet and annihilate every single alien in site. As you progress in the game you'll bring yourself to whole new planets like the Moon and Mars until you've reached the aliens Mothership. Why exactly are these cliche aliens attacking your cliche planet in the good old fashion cliche way? It's for you to find out as you destroy every cube of their being. This is the same game played by popular youtubers Markiplier and JackSepticEye; Critical Mass. Now with updated art and updated code to bring you a more full, and action packed experience.

✦ AI summary

Players praise this free game for its solid gameplay mechanics, responsive controls, and surprising depth across multiple classes and game modes, with fully destructible environments and engaging music. However, the main criticism is that development has stopped and the game feels more like a demo or incomplete project than a fully finished title, with some noting the learning curve may be steep for newcomers unfamiliar with its mechanics.

Such a shame that this game stopped development, but what is here is VERY good, it's virtually a fully-fledged game. There are several classes and game modes, and a level up system. Everything is destroyable. It's challenging, at least at first, and the controls are responsive. If the trailer looks good to you, play this one, for free why not? It surprised me, and I wish I had played this one earlier. Plus, the profile features aren't limited, so if achievements are your thing, here's a potential free perfect game... if you've got the guts. Edit: Found out that you can play as Markiplier and Jacksepticeye, so if you like those guys, there's that too. I've been a fan of Sean's for years, don't know how I missed his playthrough of this ><

Dope music, enjoyable gameplay, cool graphics. Worth the price of free.

Critical Annihilation — стратегия с необычной механикой, где игроки строят базы и уничтожают врагов, используя уникальные карты и ресурсы. Глубина тактики и динамика боёв впечатляют, но сложность обучения отпугивает новичков. Графика аркаична, а баланс — спорный. Подойдёт тем, кто ценит глубокую стратегию и готов к изучению механик.

It's really more of a demo than a early access game
