Acky's Breakout Reloaded Beta Released
Acky's Breakout Reloaded betas for Windows and Mac have been released. iOS and Android versions of the game will also be coming. Craft balls from ether, slow down time, and see inside bricks in this mesmerizing brick blasting breakout game.
Acky's Breakout Reloaded is quite different than most games in the ball and paddle genre, instead of having a set number of balls, you have two resources which are needed to craft a ball, this resource is called ether. To further add to the excitement there are dozens of power ups which grant you special abilities, like slowing down time, and seeing inside bricks! Visit the space lab and collect a comical cast of unique characters and pets, each one grants you a special strength to aide in your quest.
Acky's Breakout Reloaded also features a unique bonus system for doing specific actions. Gaining bonuses is optional but you are encouraged to do so because they are needed to unlock XP mode, an adrenaline inducing display of particles where you get super powers! Acky's Breakout Reloaded also features dozens of achievements to master, and a ranking system based on how many trophies and bonuses you've obtained. While you play statistics are saved to compare your performance to other players.

HISTORY
Acky's Reloaded is the rebirth of a game that I released 10 years ago! Since then a whole generation of new gamers have appeared and I'm excited to share this game with them on current devices and platforms. The original was called Acky's XP Breakout and was a smash hit, winning several BEST GAME awards and receiving many rave reviews...
"The best breakout game I've ever played (and I've played them all)." - John Becker, Pocket PC Louisville Editor
"This game has to be the most developed breakout clone I've ever seen." - Allen Gall, Pocket PC Magazine Games Editor
"True arkanoid fans will embrace this game as being easily one of the better titles available." - Russell Carroll, Game Tunnel
There were hundreds of reviews about the game like this, and this was the version of the game released 10 years ago, since then I have added a whole slew of new features, new levels, new level elements, all new graphics, more music, and I want to add a lot more with your help, this game will be awesome!
