Tips & Strategies
🏆 Pro Tip: Aim for the corners of the paddle to control the ball's angle. The edge sends it at a sharper angle.
- Don't panic with multi-ball — Focus on keeping at least one ball alive
- Prioritize power-ups — Let the ball handle bricks while you catch falling power-ups
- Use angles — Hit the ball with the edge of your paddle to reach tricky bricks
- Save lives for bosses — Boss fights are harder, so don't waste lives on easy levels
- Watch the ball, not the bricks — Keep your eyes on the ball's trajectory
