Magical Brickout Reviews

At first I thought it was kind of lame but I really started to get into after stage 2. Cant wait for more levels. The only problem is that sometimes the game is really hard, and sometimes its so easy it really depend on what powerup you pickup get the multiball and its all over for but the crying. Alot more fun then most of the indie games I play, never actually beating them. Whoops must have left the game on i didnt play for it 22 hours.

Im a breakout fan. This is a great game. My only problem is how do you use a mouse. I cant use the 2 buttons and the wheel. When I adjust the controls, they automatically change.

Holy fuck the difficulty is ridiculously variable throughout all these levels. Despite that, it is a rather fun game to master. The difficulty curve for this little indie game is steep and immense, but once mastered it becomes ehhh ok. 7/10

I've only played this for a short time so far, but I'm already hooked. It's a nice change from the usual square shaped breakout. Circular breakouts have been around for a long time now, so it's not as unusual as the developer makes out. I've purchased a few myself and I've also played several flash based ones such as X Bound aka Plastic Balls, Neon Blox, Radial 50, Ringgz - Brick Breaker and Uber Breakout. Today's game however not only offers a round arena, it also dispenses with the bat. Instead you move the bricks around. It was the hardest breakout I can remember playing in many years, so isn't for the faint hearted. That said it is dirt cheap at the moment with 50% off (only £1.99). I'm already impressed with this game and it's only in early alpha release at the moment. It will be interesting to see what updates are added to this game. One negative for me was when I tried to play the game full screen it kept freezing on me and I had to do the three fingered salute to escape the game. It played fine in windowed mode, which you can select whenever you start up the game via the configuration window. [u][b]Suggestions to the developer[/b][/u]: i) ... Include a bat and ball mode ii) ... Add a level editor I will return to this review to update it once I've added a few hours of game play and when its out of early access. Hopefully we will see lots of updates and additions.
