X-Ray Ball
X-Ray Ball is a Breakout variant. Your mission, as usually in such games,
is to destroy all bricks in the level with the ball you initially start, and
later reflect, from your paddle. Once all bricks are gone, you proceed to the
next level.
The game offers three different game modes (Kid Mode, Arcade, and Ultra), a
level editor, and 31 different Power-Ups (7 bad, 11 useful, and 13 very useful
ones).
Kid Mode and Arcade are both 2D, differing only in the design of their levels.
Both follow classic Breakout-style gameplay.
Ultra is the 3D variant, providing three dimensional levels, with multiple
brick layers. The ball will only use the lowest layer. Once a brick with a
brick on top of it is destroyed, the upper (higher layer) bricks move down (to
a lower layer).
On your journey through these levels, you will encounter usual Power-Ups, such
as: small/normal/big balls, shrink/expand paddle, Extra Life, slower/faster
ball, ball catcher (on the paddle), and Multiball/8-Ball. In addition, there
are 6 weapon Power-Ups (Rocket launcher, different Laser types, Prism gun, and
the Ball Gun (fires new balls)) and some special Power-Ups: Explosive (you
ball explodes), Fire Ball (ignites adjacent bricks), Super Ball (goes through
bricks), Ultra Ball (Fire Ball + Super Ball), Level Warp (immediately
completes the current level), and X Reverse/Z Reverse (first will flip your
paddle movement, second will flip the entire screen).
