Break Ball2
Paddles/Balls
Paddles- There are multiple paddles available in
Break Ball2. Each paddle has individual abilities. All
paddles can be charged up by holding down the left mouse button.
After charging the paddle, you will be able to release the left
mouse button for the special ability to occur. In addition,
each paddle has 3 levels. Each level causes the special
ability to become stronger or more controllable. For
example, the 3rd level of the missile paddle makes the missile
being launched faster as well as guidable by the paddle. |
Paddle Levels- Levels are
indicated by a graphic on
score overlay
at the top of the screen. The graphic is located in the top left corner for player 1 and in
the top right corner for player 2. These indicate what level
the paddle is currently at. Level 1 is the bottom level,
level 3 is the top. |

Paddle Special Weapon Power-up-
The main weapon of each paddle can be powered up. After
being powered up, the weapon can be launched. These weapons
vary by paddle and each paddles special weapon is listed in the
table below.
-This
image can be found on the
score overlay
at the top of the screen. The circle will appear black in
the middle when the weapon is not charged, and will fill and then
stay filled until you release the button, thus "firing" the
special weapon. Whenever you release the left mouse button,
the charging will start over at the beginning. |
|
The Classic paddle is created
after the style of all the old school paddles you are used to
seeing. This paddle has a wind-up power-up. When your
weapon is charging, the paddle will move towards the bottom of the
screen. When launched, you can cause the ball to increase
its velocity and it will break through multiple bricks. |
|
The Magnetic paddle can be either
negative or positive. When you click the right mouse button,
you can toggle between +/-. The + paddle will repel
the ball such that the ball will never hit the paddle, but will
bounce off an invisible magnetic field. When - is chosen,
the paddle will catch the ball. You can use the left mouse
button to release the ball. This paddle has no special weapon. |
|
The Rubber paddle caused the ball
to accelerate each time it is hit by bouncing it. The
special weapon is a collection of balls that are released and will
cause everything they hit to be bounced. The ball will
change directions if hit. Any bricks hit will become
bouncing bricks which will continue moving until frozen or
destroyed. |
|
The Winds paddle blows the ball
away from it such that the ball never hits the paddle. The
different levels of the paddle increase the strength of the winds
blowing the ball away. The special weapon causes a windstorm
at the bottom of the screen which blows all balls away from it.
Each level of the paddle causes the windstorm to occur farther up
the screen. |
|
The Ice paddle gives you extra
help in practicing your english by affecting the spin on the ball.
There is a slick and a slushy version of this paddle. They
can be toggled by pressing the right mouse button. The
slushy version decreases the spin whereas the slick version
increases the spin. The special weapon is a wall that is
displayed at the bottom of the screen when launched. |
|
For those who love the gun there
is the Missile paddle. You can simply blast away at the
bricks in front of you. The 2nd level of this paddle
increases the missile speed. The 3rd level increases the
speed and makes the missiles guidable. If your opponent is
hit by your missiles, he will be unable to move for a short period
of time. |
|
Launch Ball-The launch ball acts much like the rubber
paddle special weapon. It will cause bricks which are hit to
launch off. The bricks will bounce until they are destroyed. |
|
Fire Ball-The fireball will cause the brick to burn
until is melts down. At that point, it will launch off
mini-fireballs which will cause any brick hit to begin the melting
process. |
|
Ice Ball-The Ice Ball will freeze bricks hit by its
ice shards. Once frozen, the bricks will cease to move until
they are destroyed. When the ice is destroyed, it will shatter,
freezing any bricks which the shards hit. |
|
Toxic Ball-The Toxic ball will infect bricks hit by
the viral shards. When infected, the brick will have a limited
life before it is destroyed by the toxins. Then, it
will automatically explode, releasing more viral shards onto the
screen. |
