Overview

Pillars of destruction is a 3D arcade style space game. In PoD the player controls a single fighter ship that can freely move around in 3D-space and shoot wing mounted machine guns. The goal of the game is to defend your planet from a surprise missile attack. Missiles will fly in towards the planet from all directions, and the player must destroy them before they hit their target. If the player destroys a missile they earn points, but if the missile hits the planet a portion of planets population is annihilated. If the population of the planet reaches 0% then the game is lost. Players compete to earn a high score before the planet is destroyed. The player steers the ship, can increase and decrease the movement velocity, and shoot the ship’s main gun.

Pillars of destruction is a reference the famous NASA nebula photograph “Pillars of Creation”.
