Breakout Invaders

Fun for about 20 minutes, at which point it goes from relaxing to tedious.

I was a little, disappointed with this breakout, but for £1.99, what was i expecting. After collecting hundreds of them over the years, I was expecting something with at least some innovation, and much better graphics. Hmmm! well....... maybe the space invader like levels are different, but overall Breakout Invaders is a poor second cousin removed to many of the breakouts I've played over the years. Some freeware versions have been more challenging, and look better graphically than this game. It's not seriously bad, but compared to a lot of the more recent breakout games I've played, it looks dated , even though some of the level designs are quite interesting. The game felt sluggish with my mouse (a Razer Naga), the graphics are a retrograde step when compared to the likes of games like Magic Ball 2, 3 and 4, Strikeball 2 and 3 (to name just a few of the more well known ones - for some reason Alawar changed the name of the Magic Ball series to Smash Frenzy)...
