Gameplay

The gameplay of Cute Things Dying Violently is simple to learn, but difficult to master. You use your mouse to aim and launch the creatures, and you can use the spacebar to activate objects like cannons and trampolines.

The creatures can be launched in any direction, and they will continue to move until they hit an object or fall off the screen. You can use this to your advantage to launch creatures around obstacles and into hard-to-reach areas.

However, you need to be careful not to launch the creatures into danger. If a creature hits a spike, saw, or fire, it will die instantly. You also need to be careful not to launch the creatures off the screen, as they will also die if they fall too far.

Levels

The game features over 100 levels, each with its own unique challenges. Some levels are simple, while others will require you to use your brain and all of the tools at your disposal to solve.

The levels are divided into different worlds, each with its own theme. The first world is a grassy meadow, while the second world is a fiery volcano. As you progress through the game, the levels will become increasingly difficult.
