Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


It's noticeably a lot DarkerAndEdgier than ''Angry Birds'' with the setting being a world themed after [[SceneryGorn gothic/punk rock]] themes and lots of StuffBlowingUp. This game takes RatedMForManly and runs it UpToEleven.

** Triclops plays like the Blues. However his three-way split shoots the triple shot forwards (instead of keeping it's original movement speed/angle) and with a slight downwards angle.
** Diveosaurus was at the time the only character with an entirely unique move; he performs a loop in midair and then goes charging directly downwards. Later, ''Angry Birds'' would introduce Silver, which amusingly performs the exact same maneuver of looping before diving downwards.

* MadeOfExplodium: Every skull that you successfully kill will cause it to erupt into a mushroom-shaped vessel of smoke reminiscent of an atom bomb explosion. The explosion doesn't do anything to the structure itself and it just for show.

''Trucks & Skulls'' is an ''VideoGame/AngryBirds'' clone developed by Appy. Instead of flinging birds at pigs, you're launching Trucks into Skulls.

* Doomstone is Terence with the ability to perform a Dash as well, in the from of a somersault attack.
* Bombzilla is Matilda. However the bombs it launches travel at an angle because the truck itself is also angled when it's launched.
* Insanerator is Bomb. It's timer starts ticking immediately when it's launched, as opposed to the instant it hits a structure. However it must always be moving. Allowing it to stop at any moment will render it unable to explode.
* Triclops plays like the Blues. However his three-way split shoots the triple shot forwards (instead of keeping it's original movement speed/angle) and with a slight downwards angle.
