Whackerball

I was a bit surprised by Whackerball, while I thought it was pretty awesome and challenging, I also beat it in my first try. Maybe I am a beast at Breakout and just don't know it yet? The game also shares a lot of similarities and upgrades with "Downwell", which is a game I adore, so maybe I was trained already hehe. It's a great game. I plan on playing a bit more :>

good game worth the price decent amount of variety challenging at first but you'll get used to it don't expect any updates since the last one was in 2023 also screw the bow weapon

needs controller support. seems good but i cant play it.

Whackerball is like Downwell and Arkanoid fused with music that goes so incredibly hard that Whackerball becomes a full body experience. You are a paddle, keep the ball from falling, but you must avoid enemies. You can bounce the ball into enemies to harm them or EMPTY A CLIP into them point blank, provided you can account for the velocity that pushback will cause, so where do you need to be to bounce the ball back? Because hitting the ball with the paddle also reloads it. What a concept and it makes for a fantastic gameplay loop. The ever expanding selection of traits and paddle types brought the biggest smile to my face when I unlocked "SHOTGUN". I can't wait to see more of what Whackerball has to offer. This is the game that excels at everything it's doing.

A fun, clever game! Not even remotely a Roguelike, so whoever named that bundle should be ashamed. But that's neither here nor there.

this is the best arkanoid-remake i know and it´s a lot of fun
