Pagebreak

A little guide to a good mess.

Start with the practice page. Aim at a piece of content, hold to fire, and try a different tool when you want a bigger splash.

Choose a playground

The demo is ready as soon as you arrive. You can also paste a public website address and select Load page. Pagebreak reads a limited amount of text from the page and turns it into a playable layout. It does not sign in to websites or run their scripts.

Articles and simple homepages work well. Pages behind a login, paywall, bot protection, or a JavaScript-only interface may not load. If a page is unavailable, try another address or the demo.

Three tools, three moods

Cutter makes fast, precise hits. Burst hits a group of nearby pieces. Ripple covers a wider area and may take several hits to finish a sturdy piece. Rapid consecutive breaks build your combo and earn bonus points.

Invite your friends

Select Play together, enter a name, and create a room. Share the invite link or seven-character room code with up to five friends. The host picks the page and resets it; everyone can break pieces. New arrivals see the current damage.

If the host leaves, another player takes over. An empty room expires after about an hour. If your connection drops, reload the invite link to join again.

Save the aftermath

Use Save image to download the visible playground as a PNG. Reset restores the playable page so you can try a new approach. Sound is off until you turn it on.

Does it change the real website?

No. The game changes its own text snapshot. It cannot edit, delete, or otherwise damage the website you entered. Public-page loading never sends your cookies or account credentials to the destination.
