This game takes me back to when I was a boy playing Little brickout with a paddle on my apple 2 with a monochrome monitor. Thanks for the nostalgia.

Yes. This seems to be the ultimate brick breaker game with lots of fun mechanics. Excellent control. Would be really amazing with 2D pixel art instead. Needs a proper remaster at least, with the game setting in the game and not a separate launcher.

It's exactly what it looks like and it delivers. Music is great, polished graphics.

This game is dope! The soundtrack is also good and flows with the gameplay. I am a 13 yr old boy all over again.

It is a brilliant game. Most likely the definitive breakout/arkanoid game there is. It fixes my gripes with the original formula of these games (slow pacing) while adding more elements to it. Great bosses and a good music/artstyle makes to boot.
