* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: This game runs on this trope. As you can see in this page, there are many ways to kill characters in this game.

* ImmuneToBullets: Downplayed with Androids. They don't take much damage from most bullets, but high-caliber guns like the Sniper Rifle or Minigun can damage them effectively.
** While mostly averted with zombies in the current version of the game, zombies in the early versions of the game were practically bullet sponges and took multiple shots to kill. This feature was later removed in an update, but if one is feeling desperate for some hard to kill zombies, one can either use the ultra strength syringe... or modify the game's zombie syringe/ultra strength syringe in the game's inner workings (which is harder and more complicated) and make whatever is injected with the newly improved syringes stronger and more durable.
** The same could apply for humans whose health can be modified in the game files if one knows what they're doing and plays around with the right parts, ''but good luck finding a coding application that's able to dig into the game's files.'' The same can be done with the ultra strength syringe to give humans and gorses even more ridiculous bullet sponge capability. Hell, if you've got brass balls, know advanced coding, and have a lot of confidence, you could have coded a syringe that gives humans the ability to survive a fucking nuke, or outright give the human the ability through the game's coding.

** The new Bazooka (obviously based on the WWII M1 and [=M1A1=] Bazooka) is capable of tearing apart any organism it is fired at. It can even tear humans in half.

** There is the Aerial Faith Plate from ''VideoGame/Portal2''. It works like that game.
*** Similarly, the SentryGun is clearly based on the one from ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}'', due to the similar behavior. In-dev footage shows that they had a placeholder texture that looks just like the ''Portal'' turrets.

* UnrealisticBlackHole: The Decimator device emits a black hole-like substance that disintegrates anything that goes within its bounds.
** Powering up the Decimator device with a generator destroys the device and spawns a black hole, and it sucks everything nearby until it despawns.

* YouNukeEm: You can spawn nuclear weapons in the game. These bombs generate a huge fiery explosion with a mushroom cloud, and the explosion will reduce humans into charred skeletons.

''

* YourHeadAsplode: From the 1.26 update, weapons with powerful damage outputs can explode human heads either at close range or from much farther ranges.

** Uniquely, fireworks that have been resized to the size of the atom bomb also explode the same way, albeit more colorfully.

* ElaborateUndergroundBase: The Substructure map takes place in large underground base filled with facilities and dark rooms.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: While the blood loss and instant kill from head shots are realistic, sadly, shooting the heart does not result in instant death. It takes a little bit for a human being to die from being shot in the heart.
** Heart shots, chest shots, neck stabbing, and any other rupture of major arteries should result in blood squirts and sprays where appropriate.

* FlechetteStorm: Spike grenades launch lots of small spikes when detonated. Great for turning people into living(or dead) cacti.

* HandCannon: Naturally, the Magnum Revolver and the Handcannon(duh). [[spoiler: One of the easter eggs takes this up to eleven, spawning in a humungous version of the Revolver (referred to in-game as the "Normal Sized Gun") that dwarfs even the Machine Gun. A shot from it is roughly comparable to a ''tank shell''.]]

* HealingPotion: The life syringe can heal and reconstruct damaged beings, regardless of the injury or whether it is dead or alive, though if anything loses it's limb, it's gone for good and cannot be restored by the syringe.
* HealingShiv: The Reconstructor can "repair" damaged or killed organic characters with healing juice. ''It cannot repair the damaged skin despite the fact it's called a reconstructor''.

** The 1.15 update added the [[VideoGame/GarrysMod Physics Gun]]. Unfortunately, it can't freeze objects midair.

** Uniquely, fireworks that have been resized to the size of the atom bomb also explode the same way. albeit more colorfully.

* YourHeadAsplode: From 1.26 update, weapons with powerful damage outputs can explode human heads either at close range or from much farther ranges.

* {{Squick}}: 1.25 takes this to the extreme, giving dismemberment a lot more immersion. Now you can see the stringy tissue holding limbs together when you attempt to sever them.

* AwesomeButImpractical: The reconstructor is definitely this. While it can revive a human or other entity from death or unconsciousness, ''it draws the line at repairing any damaged skin and tissue that the player shot or blew the shit out of''.

** One of the usable powers is "Pull", and it drags and pulls anything within a radius.
