odd topic for a game
it was to easy and never continued. you could never fire again. fixit
Reviews for "Destruction Ball"
Horrible
There was only one building. And how come all didn't stop bouncing after I over shot that one and only building? It just kept getting higher as if it were rubber.
speed 70, angle 0, win in 5 sec...
anyway, good idea, but your right. the phsics are screwed.
now i actually know why: when you have something "bounce" against a floor, it reverses in the speed of its current movement (the gravity effects this) because the gravity increases the speed of the ball, each time it goes higher, it hits with more force, ect.
i have had this trouble many times in scripting, you have to limit the maximum speed per. bounce, so it gets lower. this may cause problems , like vibrating against the ground for example.

better physics
there's more to physics than simply F=ma. you need inelastic collisions or your wrecking ball behaves like a super ball (like it does). and as the previous review said, gravity will only unnaturally increase your kinetic energy. put in friction coefficients (for example critical velocities) and momentum conservation and then you'll have much more realistic behavior. good try though. almost there.
a good idea but failed when it comes to physics
The idea behind this game and the controls are tip top, however, physics is non existance as I managed to hit the target with out putting much power into the shot and it bounced for a duration of 4 minutes and still went on to the target. A good idea, but the coding of the game is wrong
