==Gameplay==
{{one source|section|date=January 2024}}
[[File:Carmageddon in-game screenshot (MS-DOS).png|thumb|Die Anna drives through the "Coastal Carnage" level.]]
The player races a vehicle against several other computer-controlled competitors in various settings, including city, mine and industrial areas. The player has a certain amount of time to complete each race, and more time may be gained by collecting bonuses, damaging the competitors' cars or by running over pedestrians.

Races are completed by either completing the course as one would a normal racing game, "wasting" (wrecking) all other race cars or killing all pedestrians on the level.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Amaral |first=Lúcio |title=Carmageddon: o polêmico jogo de corrida |url=https://www.gameblast.com.br/2018/03/carmageddon-polemico-jogo-corrida.html |access-date=July 18, 2023 |website=GameBlast}}</ref> The game includes thirty-six racetracks, played across eleven different locations. The game features three instrumental remixes from Fear Factory's 1995 album ''Demanufacture''.

==Development==
The game that became ''Carmageddon'' started out as ''3D Destruction Derby'', a banger racing sim prototyped by [[Company:Stainless Games|Stainless Software]]. This was signed by [[Company:Square Enix Europe|SCi]] in 1995, with the condition that it be made into a licensed game to guarantee popularity. Initially, SCi wanted to use the ''Mad Max'' license, but was unable to find out who owned the rights to the franchise. It instead secured the ''Death Race 2000'' license, as a sequel to the original film was at that time planned.<ref name=makingof>{{cite magazine |url=http://www.next-gen.biz/features/making-of%C3%B6-carmageddon |title=The Making Of... Carmageddon |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120509211733/http://www.edge-online.com/features/making-of%c3%b6-carmageddon |archive-date=May 9, 2012 |magazine=Edge}}</ref>

According to head programmer Patrick Buckland, the initial concept stemmed from team members getting bored while playing racing games, leading them to ultimately drive in the wrong direction and crash into other cars. They decided it made sense to create a game where this was the objective to begin with.<ref name=makingof/> Shortly after, [[Company:Psygnosis|Psygnosis]] released a game with this same concept, ''[[Software:Destruction Derby|Destruction Derby]]''.

The notion of running over pedestrians was added to distinguish the game from ''Destruction Derby'' and arouse controversy.<ref name=NGen25>{{cite magazine |title=NG Alphas: Carmaggedon{{sic}} |magazine=Next Generation |issue=25  |date=January 1997 |pages=125–6}}</ref> However, there had been a number of recent games which involved running over pedestrians, such as ''[[Software:Quarantine (video game)|Quarantine]]'' and ''[[Software:Die Hard Trilogy|Die Hard Trilogy]]''.<ref name=NGen25/> Rob Henderson from SCi suggested increasing the potential for controversy by awarding the player points for the pedestrian kills.<ref name=makingof/>

The sequel to ''Death Race 2000'' was later cancelled, but by this point SCi were impressed enough by Stainless's work that they felt Stainless could try creating their own [[Social:Intellectual property|intellectual property]].<ref name=makingof/> The name ''Carmageddon'' was coined, and development proceeded with the designers allowed unusually free rein with regard to the content of the game.

The game uses the [[Software:BRender|BRender]] engine, which Stainless Software were already thoroughly familiar with; one of their previous contracts was to port BRender to Macintosh and build the corresponding tools and demos.<ref name=NGen25/> The [[Engineering:PlayStation (console)|PlayStation]] conversion was subcontracted to developer Elite, with the plan to release the PC and PlayStation versions simultaneously. Buckland anticipated that Elite would have problems with the conversion due to ''Carmageddon''{{'}}s open environments.<ref name=NGen25/>

==Release==
''Carmageddon'' was originally released for [[Software:MS-DOS|MS-DOS]], [[Software:Windows|Windows]], and [[Mac OS]] in 1997.

===Controversy===
In many countries (including Germany and, for a short time, the United Kingdom), the first release of the game was censored.

The censored version contained zombies with green blood or robots with black oil instead of humans, as running over the non-human figures was considered more acceptable by their respective ratings boards. In the United Kingdom, the BBFC refused to certify the game unless all blood and gore was removed. After ten months of appeal, the BBFC certified the original version.<ref>{{cite news |title=Carmageddon 2 review - History of Carmageddon |work=PC Format|date=January 1999 |author=Bradley, David |page=81}}</ref>

In some countries, such as Brazil, the game was banned completely.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://jogos.uol.com.br/ultnot/multi/2009/12/01/ult530u7429.jhtm |title=Criar ou distribuir jogos ofensivos pode virar crime no Brasil |publisher=UOL Jogos |date=December 1, 2009 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091223121403/http://jogos.uol.com.br/ultnot/multi/2009/12/01/ult530u7429.jhtm |language=pt |archive-date=December 23, 2009}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |first=Curt |last=Feldman |url=http://headline.gamespot.com/news/97_12/02_carma/index.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/19990504123420/http://headline.gamespot.com/news/97_12/02_carma/index.html |title=Brazilian Brass Puts the Brakes on Carmageddon |website=GameSpot |publisher=CBS Interactive |archive-date=May 4, 1999 |date=December 2, 1997 |access-date=August 18, 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine |title=Brazil Bans Grand Theft Auto |magazine=GamePro|issue=116|publisher=IDG|date=May 1998|page=30}}</ref> The game, along with the sale and distribution of videogames "oriented towards the destruction of people" with vehicles, was banned in the capital city of [[Place:Buenos Aires|Buenos Aires]], Argentina in 1998.<ref>{{cite web |title=Ley 16 - Juego Electrónico "Carmaggedon" y similares - Prohibición |url=http://www2.cedom.gob.ar/es/legislacion/normas/leyes/ley16.html |website=Direccion General Centro Documental de Información y Archivo Legislativo |access-date=October 5, 2025 |location=Buenos Aires, Argentina |language=es |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180729052850/http://www2.cedom.gob.ar/es/legislacion/normas/leyes/ley16.html |archive-date=2018-07-29 |url-status=dead }}</ref> In Australia, the game was passed completely uncut with a MA15+ rating.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://refused-classification.com/Games_A-D.htm#carmageddon |title=Refused-Classification.com Games A-D |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070626000301/http://refused-classification.com/Games_A-D.htm |archive-date=June 26, 2007}}</ref>

According to the co-founders of Stainless Games, about two million copies of the ''Carmageddon'' series were sold in total.<ref name=makingof /> NPD Techworld, a firm that tracked sales in the United States,<ref name=usnpd>{{cite web |url=https://www.zdnet.com/article/gateway-notebook-goes-for-ratings/ |title=Gateway notebook goes for ratings |author=Spooner, John G. |date=June 13, 2003 |publisher=[[ZDNet]] |access-date=September 20, 2019}}</ref> reported 118,500 units sold of ''Carmageddon''{{'}}s computer version by December 2002.<ref name=controversial>{{cite magazine |author=Staff |title=The 10 Most Controversial PC Games of All Time |date=May 2003 |volume=10 |number=5 |magazine=PC Gamer US |pages=50, 51}}</ref>

''GameSpot'' was enamoured of the open ended, chaotic nature of the game, commenting that "''Carmageddon'' touches that particular collective nerve that fuses the wholesome popularity of the All-American Racing Game with the homicidal singularity of the 70s cult film into an onscreen experience that can only be compared to the kind of automotive mayhem that a five-year-old American male wreaks with his [[Engineering:Matchbox (brand)|Matchbox]] and Hot Wheels cars."<ref name=gspc/> ''Next Generation'' stated that "if you're willing to sweep your morals under the rug for a while, and shamelessly commit auto homicide on a grand scale, then ''Carmageddon'' is an absolute blast."<ref name=NG>{{cite magazine |title=It Shreds |magazine=Next Generation |issue=33 |publisher=Imagine Media |date=September 1997 |page=136}}</ref> ''GamePro'' gave a more mixed review, commenting that the game is intense and high on longevity, but that its focus on wanton destruction and gore is in questionable taste and ultimately to the detriment of the gameplay. They also found the graphics mediocre and the controls when using a keyboard to be "frustrating and sluggish".<ref>{{cite magazine |first=Dan | last=Elektro |title=PC GamePro Review: Carmageddon |magazine=GamePro |issue=109 |publisher=IDG |date=October 1997 |page=110}}</ref>

==Legacy==
''Carmageddon'' had two sequels, ''[[Software:Carmageddon II: Carpocalypse Now]]'' (1998) and ''[[Software:Carmageddon TDR 2000|Carmageddon TDR 2000]]'' (2000). SCi planned ''Carmageddon 4'' for a release in the end of 2005. In August 2005 SCi (at the time operating under the name [[Company:Eidos Interactive|Eidos]]) put development at Visual Science on hold for unspecified reasons.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/news190805carmageddon |title=Carmageddon 4 halted |website=Eurogamer |date=August 19, 2005 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110810010127/http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/news190805carmageddon |archive-date=August 10, 2011}}</ref>

In 2005, Swedish publisher Synergenix released two adaptations of the game for mobile devices entitled ''Carmageddon'' and ''Carmageddon 3D'', developed by Impressionware and Kampo Interactive, respectively. Released on July 4, 2005, ''Carmageddon'' features a top-down perspective for lower-end Java devices.

''Max Damage'' was given to owners of ''Reincarnation'' as a free upgrade.

In 2018, THQ Nordic bought the rights to the ''Carmageddon'' [[Social:Intellectual property|intellectual property]]. On August 3, 2021, THQ Nordic announced a ''Carmageddon''-themed tournament in their ''[[Software:Wreckfest|Wreckfest]]'' racing game.

In December 2025, a spin-off of the ''Carmageddon'' franchise, titled ''Carmageddon: Rogue Shift'', was announced by 34BigThings. It was described as having roguelite elements, and due to its status as a spin-off, was noted to feature deviations from the main series, such as weapons on the vehicles, zombies instead of humans, a less comedic tone, dynamic weather, and upgradeable vehicles. It was given a release date of early 2026. 34BigThings had previously created the futuristic racing series ''[[Software:Redout (video game)|Redout]]''. They were acquired by Embracer Group in 2020.<ref>{{cite website |url=https://geekvibesnation.com/gvn-first-look-2026-34bigthings-carmageddon-rogue-shift/ |title=GVN Gaming First Look |website=Geek Vibes Nation |date=December 4, 2025 |access-date=December 8, 2025}}</ref>
