Destroy Any Website: a browser run-and-gun that lets you blast a copy of any webpage

A small pixel-art game by Hugo Duprez turns public-facing sites into playable levels. You control a character with WASD, use the mouse to aim, and can race friends in a multiplayer destruction mode. The destruction happens on a copy of the page, not the live site.

Useful takeaways from this story.

You play a pixel-art run-and-gun on a replica of a chosen public webpage using WASD, mouse aiming, jump and jetpack controls.

The game was created by Hugo Duprez as a showcase for Sprite Fusion, his browser pixel-art editor for 2D games.

The useful part

You take command of a character and run, jump and jetpack around website site elements using traditional WASD controls, taking aim with your mouse to score points by blasting your chosen online target to literal tiny pieces. There's even a competitive multiplayer mode that you pick a website, share a code with a pal and then race against each other to reach a target destruction score, replete with scoreboard to keep tabs on. The game in action It's made by Hugo Duprez, creator of Sprite Fusion, a browser-based pixel-art editor for 2D games and this page-rage clone doubles as a showcase for what it can do.

How it works

  • No, not in a strict sense, but catharsis is cross-platform and it works in any modern Linux desktop browser.
  • This may help me them work through their issues with that online retailer who screwed up an order, the bookmarked indie blog that became an effluent pipe for the Brown Brothers … Ahem.
  • I didn't use Linux back then, so I don't know if there were similar ones.
  • Lest anyone panic, the wanton destruction this game unleashes leaves no permanent trace.
  • A cutesy frontend for 'prompting' the latest batch of rogue OpenAI agents this ain't, and no-one will know you blasted anything.

What to take from it

I saw it with my coffee and figured you might find it an amusing – or productive – way to pass 5 minutes. Blasting stuff with laser guns and flame-throwers counts as "wellness" in my book (a tome latterly purchased by a shell company to ship aboard for no reason). It also reminded me of those old "destroy your desktop" games/apps that were a bit of a 'thing' on Windows back in the 2000s (probably as a vehicle for trojans and browser toolbars).
