Acky's XP Breakout

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffAugust 26, 2015Another variation on the tried-and-true breakout game, this program stands out due to its high level of customization. In terms of gameplay, Acky's XP Breakout doesn't deviate from the formula, with one exception: If you miss a ball, you can create a new one, if you have enough ether remaining. The program offers plenty of brick types and power-up twists. That said, we found this game quite addictive. You can change controls from the keyboard to the mouse, redefine control keys, reset graphics to a lower level, switch between full-screen and window modes, enable power-item morphing, and alter the music and volume. You'll also find a level editor in case you master all the predesigned ones, another nice touch. The graphics are attractive and colorful, and the soundtrack gives you a kick. We think this game will please any fan of the breakout genre.
