About the game
Break the grid, catch the shards it drops, and turn them into an Overload barrage.
Every block you break drops shards that drift down the field toward you. Catch them with the paddle to fill your charge meter; a caught shard also raises your multiplier. Drifter blocks come loose and slide down on you, and the enemy fires back, so where you hold the paddle is always a trade between the ball, the shards and what is incoming.
Fill the meter and unleash Overload, a barrage that tears up the grid. Raise a shield to deflect drifters and enemy fire — and while it is up, every shard you catch ricochets back up the field as a bullet. Power-ups widen the paddle, split the ball, or punch it straight through armour.
24 grids across four zones, each ending in an armoured boss whose core only opens on a cycle: break the plating, wait for the opening, and put a ball through it. A built-in editor lets you lay out your own grid from all six block types and play it immediately.
Runs entirely offline with no network access of any kind, in eleven languages, with full gamepad support alongside touch.
How to play
- Broken blocks drop shards that fall toward you. Catch them with the paddle.
- Collected shards fill the charge meter and raise your multiplier.
- A full meter fires an Overload barrage up the grid.
- The shield burns charge but deflects drifters and enemy fire, and fires caught shards back up.
- A core is only vulnerable while it is open. Break its armour and wait.
- Camera: the camera button, Q, D-pad up or View — arena, behind the paddle or top-down
