GAMEPLAY
Doing the above is not as easy as it sounds, as some blocks require more than one hit and others speed up your ball. To make things even more interesting, strange creatures enter from the top of the court and float around, causing the ball to rebound randomly when they touch it. These creatures also throw bombs at your racket which, if they hit, will destroy it. Fortunately the creatures will be destroyed when they come into contact with the ball.
Some blocks release helpful features when they are knocked out. These must be caught by the racket to be used. Some will only last for a short time. The features are:
1. Extended racket
2. Slow ball
3. Smart bomb - destroys all creatures
4. Hand - lets you hold on to the ball
5. Gun - allows you to shoot the creatures and blocks
6. Extra life
7. Triple ball
8. Rocket pack - transports you to the next level
9. Bonus points
0. Smash ball - destroys everything in its path
In the double play mode the court is divided into two halves and the players work together to clear the court.
