DX-Ball
|
DX-Ball is a free
arcade game by Michael P. Welch.
It has got to be the best Breakout-style game ever.
The object of the game is to bounce your ball around the screen with your paddle,
breaking bricks, collecting points and power-ups as you go.
Once all the bricks are destroyed, you move to the next level.
If you drop the ball, you lose a life.
The game has 50 different levels, lots of power-ups and in-game music.
