Start with both hands in 'S' handshapes (fists) in front of your chest. Bring your dominant fist down to strike your non-dominant fist. Immediately after they touch, quickly move both hands outward and upward while opening your fingers wide into '5' handshapes, mimicking a sudden explosion.
Sign 'bomb' with a large, forceful movement to show the explosion, then sign 'loud' by pointing to your ear and shaking your hands back and forth.
Sign 'building', then 'find', and finally 'bomb'. Make sure to start the 'bomb' sign with tight fists before executing the explosive outward motion.
Sign 'video game', then use the sign for 'bomb'. You can adjust the size of the explosion motion to match how big the blast is in the context of the game.

You don't need to make a vocal sound, but it is very common to mouth the word 'boom' or puff your cheeks to visually represent the sound and force of the explosion.
While you can use it playfully, ASL has specific signs for 'fail' or 'flop' that are much more commonly used when talking about a movie, test, or event that was unsuccessful.
Generally, your dominant hand should be the one that actively strikes or rests on top of the non-dominant hand just before both hands explode outward.
