About this game

Cannon Crush is a demolition game built on real structural physics. Each level puts a building in front of you - crates, spires, stone, bridges, walls - and gives you a small number of shots to bring it down. The aiming is in three parts: elevation, yaw and power, all adjustable and all shown on screen before you commit. That precision is the point, because the scoring is based on how much you destroy rather than whether you hit, and a shot placed into a load-bearing corner will do more than three fired into the middle. Structures collapse under their own weight once you take the right piece out, which is what makes a single well-judged shot so much better than brute force. Twelve levels build from First Knock and Crate Yard, through Twin Spires, Stone Bones and The Old Bridge, up to Township, The Great Wall and the Grand Fortress. Stars are awarded per level according to how thoroughly you flattened it and how few balls it took, so a level you have already passed is still worth coming back to.

How to play

Up and Down arrows set elevation, Left and Right set yaw. Hold Space or click and hold to build power, release to fire. Watch the destruction percentage - you are scored on how much comes down, not on hits. Aim for what is holding the structure up rather than the structure itself. Balls are limited.
