Plasma Ball

An adaptation of the Breakout style of game but with an interesting new slant. The aim is the keep the ball in the air as long as possible using the joystick controlled bat. However, as the game progresses, the ceiling slowly gets lower, giving you less time to position the bat correctly and the ball speeds up. Sounds easy, but in fact this game is a real challenge and it takes quite an effort to get your name on the high score table.
