This's the demo version of a new game by Darkage Software!

Powerball is a simple puzzle game where the player must clean each screen from
all the coloured bricks. Doing this is possible by using a ball that bounces up
and down in the screen and that can be controlled by the player who can move it
left or right. The ball cleans all the same-coloured bricks; to change its
colour it has to touch a brick with two crossed arrows indicating a ball.
Other bricks that the ball can meet are those which are painted with a skull
(to avoid, because they cause the loss of a life), those which can be moved
(but not cleaned) represented by a four-head arrow and those which allow the
ball to be teleported between two points. Obviously, difficult grows up going
on through the levels which compose the game and examining each screen before
starting action could be useful. But you have to take care of the time limit in
each level; running out of time will cause the loss of a life. During game,
you can collect several bonuses which can increase points or lives, make you
jump to the next level etc. They appear for a few seconds as a brick on the
screen.

The full game features:

80 levels in 8 worlds
Runs also on an A500!
Level editor to add your own levels
Only one floppy disk, but it's also hard disk installable!
A password system to save your position
Loads of fun included in the package! :)


PowerBall will be released in March 2000 by Epic Marketing ltd.
