My entry for Ludum Dare 41: Combine 2 Incompatible Genres

It's Breakout/Arkanoid game mixed with a cardgame. Instead of a paddle, you have a deck of cards you can use to control the ball in a semi-turn based manner.

Your goal is to clear all mooks from the level. Beware of the red one though, he’s gonna eat your balls!

Haha what a crazy game. A little hard in the beginning but really fun.

We enjoyed it very much.

Here is a short video we made while playing:

The core concept is absolutely wonderful - a turn- and card-based "Breakout" is an innovative approach and surprisingly much fun! Thanks to the deadly red blocks you added a tactical touch to the whole game, which turned out to be quite challenging. A wonderful little game, which I happily recommended in one of our compilation articles about the Ludum Dare 41. <3 Of course it's also featured in the related gameplay video. :) Thank you very much for your entry and I keep my fingers crossed that you'll get a high ranking with that one!

Best wishes,
Sebastian
