Toastercide

Toastercide puts you in control of a toaster tasked with eliminating targets by maneuvering them into bathtubs. You grapple and swing through physics-based environments, using your power cord to move quickly and slow down time.

Grapple and swing

Toastercide uses two movement controls. Shoot your power cord at a powered object to be pulled toward it at great speed; attach it to an unpowered object to use the cord as a rope and change your momentum while moving. Combining grapples and swings enables complex movement and requires learning advanced maneuvers.

Missions and hazards

Missions take place in settings including a college dorm room, a three-bedroom suburban home, Santa's workshop and Dallas, Texas, in 1963. You avoid patrolling goons and hazards such as water, bullets and the ground. People are also frightened by moving appliances, so you need to avoid them where possible.

Toast abilities

You collect toast during missions and eject it to unlock special abilities. These include invincibility, dashing, teleportation, burning projectile toast and toast swapping. Choosing abilities creates opportunities for synergies and time-saving techniques.

Speedrunning

The game is designed around speedrunning. You can learn its advanced techniques, try to beat your previous times and aim to earn all three stars. Using toast abilities well can help you find time saves.
