Shatter Review Important! Consider THIS 2010 version NOT the cheap "remake". Shatter is an impressive game! It’s a great blend of classic arcade games like Breakout and Pong, with wonderful boss fights, clever ideas, and fantastic visuals. It offers plenty of challenging game modes, and the music is a real banger that keeps the energy high. Every close save and satisfying hit delivers a quick rush of adrenaline that keeps you coming back for more. The only downside is that some achievements are seriously challenging to earn. I’ve played through the first five worlds so far and can’t stop playing—it’s incredibly addictive. Just a tip: If you want to avoid burnout / rage or any other unhealthy condition avoid hunting a highscore in the Bonus Mode. This can turn into hell quickly. I got 13,2 million which IS a top score. Unfortunately there are a "few" aliens in the ranking above me with unreal reaction skills. 9 / 10
Brick Breaker that has been raised up to 11, played something similar like space invaders extreme and that had like a remix to Space Invaders which is raised to 11. Anyway it's a must buy if your into something that revolves a ball and have something to hit with like a brick to clear out levels as you progress, reminds me of something in the arcades, yeah buy shatter it's probably the only brick breaker game I've come across so far, here on Steam.
