A New Shooter Game Set In A Destructible Voxel World

If you’ve ever played a shooter game, then you’ll be excited about this.

This is a new game in development for the PC and Mac from Lexaloffle Games called Voxatron, set in a voxel world that can be completely and utterly trashed. Good news if you’re that person who breaks the windows or glassware at parties—instead of smashing up other people’s property, you can vent your impotent rage on this instead. For those that don’t know, a voxel is like a 3D pixel, a cube basically, and this arena-based shooter game is made up of lots of them in a virtual 128×128×64 grid, making for lots of destructive fun.

The developers call it "Robotron set in a 3D destructible world with goofy creatures," which sounds absolutely amazing. Why? Because you can destroy anything in the arena, and anyone who’s ever played a shooter before will know that blasting the crap out of everything in sight is a great way to pass the time. And if you’re not into the game, you can just groove out on the music.
