The Rod Of God by RandyOrenstein
The Rod of God is a physics-heavy simulation of how the worship of man has brought forth an avatar in his image, and now our sadly linear cities shall suffer his wrath so long as the faithful still follow him!
A and D to move left and right, space to drop the hammer or lift it again.
Special thanks to @Draknek, @fromsmiling, @bnhw, and @sally_anne_! Thanks so much for the help making this work, and jamming with me in Toronto!!
Also less personal thanks to Wilhelm, where ever you are, for your lovely scream, to Project Gugenhiem for their recording of Handel's Hallelujah Chorus, and to Iwan Gabovitch for use of his explosion sound effect.

I did not ask to be included in the Audio judging as I used non-personal tracks. I had hoped that would work?

Checked with Mike Kasprzak, and with the opt-out he said it was legal for Compo :)

WTF. This game is so... I don't there exists a word so powerful to describe this game's greatness. 8/8, wld r8 again m8. Although better controls would be appreciated. E.g. mouse controls for the rod. And it glitched out when I played. After I destroyed a really high building, it went into the air and stayed at the top.

Thanks for guiding me to this game from the comment you made on "Grow my Thing" - you too have shown great use of the theme obviously :D

One of my own rejected game ideas was around "The Power of Christ Compels You" but I couldn't figure out a mechanic. You found one. Got to give you credit for that :P

A giant wrecking dong gets my vote! But I couldn't get past the main menu, an error console opened instead :(

Try the downloadable version. in-browser doesnt seem to work as well. The Console error is a streaming thing, downloading it will solve that issue :)
