About this game

A generally simple but a bit unusual Breakout variant by Ken Silverman, the author of the Build engine. Here, the player can not only move the paddle horizontally, but also vertically, which might sound like it makes playing easier, but it doesn't.

There are no falling bonuses in this game, you just need to clear the screen of all blocks without losing any balls if possible. It is highly recommended to play this with the mouse.
