| I didn't like it. 1. There aren't any power-ups?? 2. The colour scheme is awful. 3. The mouse control is far too sensitive. 4. You have no apparent control over where the ball goes. I couldn't even be bothered to play it for the duration of level 1. I simply lost interest after about 60 seconds of not much happening. I played for a few minutes more to give it a chance, but still nothing happened. Sorry. |

| Like Dave I got bored with it very quickly. Apologies for repeat comments however: The colours are dreadful There don't seem to be power ups The bat is a rectangle with no detail on what-so-ever You can't control the ball (if the ball hits the right hand edge it should put more x+ force on the ball) I found the moving play area pointless and distracting. The text and screen fades were way too slow. I have no idea why it was a 12 mb download. I seriously recomend downloading a specturm emulator and Batty. This (I think) has been the best brick-bat game to date. On the upside, it's got some nice fx in there and the different sized blocks makes it more interesting. I thought of an idea with this sort of game to actually include gravity so you can knock out blocks to make others fall down... just a thought. I do enjoy these simplistic games so if you fix the comments above you might have a winner, I think Filax was working on one too. [edit]Found it... Here and here[/edit] |

| Come on guys it wern't that bad... colors were ok, yes no powerups, there should be and the board moving made me feel ill.. but it played ok if not a bit slow. |

| Wehey Batty! That was my second favourite C64 game. I made a Batty clone in Blitz years ago to mimic that Batty sensation of two player coop play. http://enaysoft.co.uk/pongobongo/pb.html I really am surprised though that noone jumped on the bang wagon and made 2 player of everything else like Batty. 2 player Pacman/Space Invaders/Missile Command etc. |

| Oo, that IS a good idea. I'd never seen Batty. I did think Ricochet was pretty good though. |
| ||
| There was an awesome Arkanoid clone where the bricks scrolled down the screen at you and they came in different patterns, there were also enemy bosses I think it was for ST or Amiga |
| ||
| ok I think ppl have been a bit harsh. Its nice and smoth here. I agree though, add powerups and a few other little bits and I think you will have a really nice game on your hands. Good job. |
| ||
| Big bosses on an arkanoid game would be cool. |
| ||
| There IS plenty of Power-ups... just start it with run1.bat ( instead of run.exe ) Very nice, smooth engine... but control scheme needs some work. |

| I liked that Webstopaggo game the best. That's the reason I bought B3D. |
