How it feels

A fast-paced arcade action game where you bounce a ball to destroy blocks in space, with a sci-fi backstory about a runaway 3D printer.

What players say

Players split on this breakout clone. Many praise the unique level art and music, but others say the scrolling levels are filled with too many indestructible blocks, making each stage a slow slog. A major frustration is that dying to a boss forces a full level restart, and there is no way to skip a stage.
