Immediately boring, makes me want to go play shatter or wizorb. Draw the same line a lot with "earn extra money" upgrades equipped. grind. Suggestions: - More interesting powerups, sooner - A less standard brick arena size, more bounces fewer lines drawn --Don't have the 3rd or 4th level be a giant wall of solid bricks that immediately bounces back repeatedly --Feels handcuffed, this mechanic could allow for scrolling levels, multiple paddle fields on all sides or throughout a map, etc...

Drawkanoid is a variant on the classic paddle games, like Breakout or Blasterball. With the difference here being instead of controlling a paddle, the player draws the paddle and it's orientation. The game will enter a bullet time mode to give you time to aim your next shot at the blocks. It's a good time waster. A game that's good for quick pick up and play for a few minutes.
[b]drawkanoid[/b] is a fun take on the traditional breakout, with [b]you drawing the paddle[/b] when the ball is about to leave the stage. it's lightning-fast until the ball enters the bottom of the screen, then it goes bullet-time for a bit, letting you do your thing. what's really cool is you [b]don't need to clear the whole board[/b], spending days on hunting that elusive corner piece. if all the marked bricks are gone, the boss comes down from above and hitting it once ends the level. there are also [b]permanent upgrades and equippable power-ups to unlock[/b] with points, plus two more game modes. [i]countdown[/i] has a timer instead of lives (no conundrum though), [i]zen[/i] is completely pointless, as usual. you might think this sounds way too easy, and I'm sure it is for some, but when there's a million tiny moving things on the screen, some spawning right next to the ball, it can get frustrating. seeing where the ball is heading can also be difficult sometimes, with previous ...
I don't really understand whats happening all the time, but pretty lights and increasing numbers really gets the dopamine flowing. Also its a mouse only game so I can keep my other hand in my pants.
A fun base mechanic and exciting visuals make it really satisfying to play. As you get into a rhythm it also surprisingly starts to feels meditative. Gradually you get upgrades and the game becomes more strategic which makes getting huge combos have even more of a payoff than just looking cool.
I picked this up at the start of the year and have found myself dipping back in to it here and there over the course of the year. Well recommended even if it's just for a lazy sunday with a coffee and accidentally beating your score
decent mindless entertainment. get on sale.
[h1]Drawkanoid: Satisfyingly Chaotic[/h1] The premise of "Breakout but you draw your paddle" sounds interesting in theory and is actually [b]really[/b] interesting in practice. The visuals do the game a huge service, especially when you manage to get an insane combo. It's a nice game to come back to every so often and (unlike say "[i]Super Hexagon[/i]") becomes more a game of endurance and in the moment decision making rather than one of reflex. I'd recommend it! it's like... the price of a lunch... and you get to keep it too. Definitely gonna play some more of it!
Absolutely love the balance of tension. It's definitely exploring things left untouched in other re-interpretations of this classic, feels like the ultimate version of the brickbreaker genre. omg, the hexagonal enemies are amazing for all the rebounding goodness, but the little orange rounds are complete nonsense.
An okay arcade game, but does not offer much up to today's standards, and certainly not worth the price. No steam cloud either.
