About the Game

Detritus is a fun chaotic 2D Platformer shooter game for both Online & Offline play with up to 8 players. Featuring over two dozen weapons, a handful of maps, a handgun dual-equip mechanism, ragdoll physics, and several game mode 'minigames' including:

  • Deathmatch

  • Turn Based

  • Team Deathmatch

  • Flag Rally

In the Deathmatch & Team Deathmatch modes, you can dictate the game length and weapon types available, such as:

Explosives (Grenade, Proximity Bomb, Sticky Bomb, Bazooka + more)

Rifles (Assault Rifle, AK47, M4 + more)

Handguns* (Pistol, Desert Eagle, UZI + more)

Shotguns (AA-12, Beretta, Assault Shotgun)

Melee - Put the guns down and fight with your fists instead!

Or all of the above!

All weapons hold different attributes, making some more useful than others for finishing off the job. * Players can also equip two handguns simultaneously for maximum firepower!

Turn Based was inspired by the original Worms game, and allows you to control a team of 4 players. For your turn, you can use a variety of weapons to eliminate your opponents in order to tacitcally remain the last men standing. This game mode features specific weapons such as Teleport, Airstrike, the notorious Phone Bomb, Lightning Strike & More. With destructive terrain generated maps, this mode ensures a top level of unpredictability

Flag Rally is a race against the clock to collect the various flags which spawn throughout the maps, which must then be delivered to the Flagpole to achieve a score. CPU players will not attack you in this game mode unless you are holding the flag they are heading for. However, minor inconvenience such as a dynamite to the face will cause you to drop a flag - so good luck!

Additional Features

Online Multiplayer

Detritus features Online Multiplayer, with an always available server. Simply create a game and toggle the 'Online' setting to make your lobby Live!

As the lobby host, you can toggle the max number of players for your game. All players which aren't human will be replaced by the brutal & relentless CPUs who will ensure your destruction. Up to 8 players are available per lobby, offline & online, with the exception of Turn Based which supports 4 Teams
