About the Game

“I am the danger! I am the one who knocks down buildings!” — Marvin the “Breaking Beaver”

NO DAMS TO GIVE!

Breaking Beaver is a fast-paced Survivor-like action game where you pilot a heavily armored bulldozer and tear through the city that took everything from you.

Rip down buildings to reshape the battlefield, forging new paths through the chaos. Each building yields vital resources like wood, scrap, and cash, which you’ll use to enhance your bulldozer’s defensive and offensive capabilities. 

Defeat enemies to earn experience, leveling up to choose upgrades for both your weapons and your bulldozer, becoming more powerful with each choice.

A CITY TO BURN

There is no “bad part” of Grove City. It’s all bad.

Navigate a branching mission map with varying objectives and escalating difficulty modifiers. Each district raises the stakes, offering greater risks and greater rewards. 

Complete each mission’s objectives while surviving endless hordes of foes to advance. You can choose to escape immediately, or stick around to earn more resources and upgrades – at the risk of getting overwhelmed.

Reach the final district and defeat the boss to complete the run, gaining resources to unlock permanent upgrades that persist between runs. Keep your loot, or risk advancing to the next difficulty tier, facing greater challenges and new bosses for greater gains.

A RAGTAG WRECKING CREW

Everyone needs a partner in crime.

Complete in-run challenges to unlock a roster of 10 playable animal pilots, each with their own starting abilities and distinct playstyles. Expand your arsenal with dozens of unlockable weapons, and craft powerful synergies that transform your bulldozer into a relentless force of devastation.

During a run, recruit an animal copilot to unlock game-changing abilities that can save you from the brink of defeat.
