Dear colleagues, please find attached my favourite game of 2022: Teardown. In this game, the player is given the tools to destroy and shape the game world around them, which is made entirely of destructible voxels. The core gameplay loop has the player plan and create efficient paths between objectives (say, cars to steal) that must then be completed within only 60 seconds. I began writing the article just as the game was about to enter early access in October 2020. It has been a Good Article since November 2022 (thanks, @Shooterwalker) and was a DYK item on the Main Page in December 2022 (cheers, @Theleekycauldron). Following the release of the console versions last year, plus the completion of the GOCE editing spree just this week (props to @Dhtwiki), I feel ready to tackle my second Featured Article nomination. Thank you to all commenters in advance! IceWelder [✉] 20:47, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
Image review
- Teardown cover.jpg – good.
- Teardown screenshot.jpg – good.
- Alt text explains all images perfectly.
- This passes the image review. — VAUGHAN J. (t · c) 02:29, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
LunaEclipse (Source review)
I will get to this in the following days. If I somehow don't, trout me. — lunaeclipse (talk) (contribs) 11:47, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- There is a CNET citation in the article. I'd heavily recommend removing it as the publication is unreliable per WP:CNET.
- You should also remove the Game Rant source (situational per VG/S).
- What makes Voxagon reliable?
- Ref formatting seems ok to me. Nothing to do here.

- Thank you for the review, @LunaEclipse!
- I removed the CNET source.
- The VG/S comment for Game Rant reads "Topics of low potential for controversy such as general pop culture topics or game information are allowable areas." I reduced its usage to the mention of the top-down view, which I think is invaluable to state. I also left the Reception comments intact for now, although I have no hard feelings in this regard. Would you say that this usage is justified in this case?
- Voxagon is the blog of the game's designer, Dennis Gustafsson. It should be treated as a primary source.

- IceWelder, ehh... I don't think if Game Rant should be here though. FAC demands high-quality sources, and Game Rant is not one. Additionally, many video game FAs don't use it at all. lunaeclipse (talk) 11:55, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
