Hard to describe, so try it for yourself.

Wow ! Thats a really cool example of the (often pointless) "Hit the brick with the ball" games. There are many cool ideas in it (Ball Generator, Star Fish, Railbrick, Railarrow....) and the demo restrictions seem to be pretty zero... (You cant save a game only every 10 rounds)

I thought I recognised it from somewhere before.

It was mentioned by Oneiromancer too, in the first page of this thread.

Yep, agaricus has it right.

Also, I think BreakQuest is far more innovative than Ricochet is. I put my money for that down really quick-like.

Game on,

Yeah, although I'm stingier than Oneiro, if I was going to buy a breakout game Break Quest would be it. It's a serious quantum leap over most of the other games out there.
