A fun twist of Break Out that features roguelike elements, gravity and a gun to fire your shots from the ball in order to hit enemies and curve it in the direction you desire. It takes a bit to coordinate this with the paddle movement which needs to take into account bullet type of dodging but once you get the hang of it, it shines. Also, all the tracks are distinct and art style is pretty even with its simplicity.

It's a shame I can't rate it higher since there's a bug that softlocks a run once the ball gets out of bounds and you quickly try to recover it. It makes wasted runs a frustration and it hasn't been patched since its release so once they do this review will be edited accordingly.

Edit: the bug was patched plus I was able to get all the achievements. Look, no upgrades.
