Mr. Bounce

Mr. Bounce is an action/puzzle game created by pixelate and published on June 6, 2008. It plays similarly to a standard Breakout-style game, but features a unique control scheme for an original twist.

Like any Breakout game, the goal in Mr. Bounce is to use your ball and paddle to break all the breakable objects in each level, and to take care not to lose your ball. However, Mr. Bounce grants you some abilities not seen in your typical Breakout game - you can control how high your ball bounces off the paddle, and slow the ball down to control it more easily. The paddle also has a guide line that shows you which direction the ball will go the next time it bounces off the paddle.

In each level, you have four lives and a set amount of time to complete the level. If you run out of lives, the level is lost. If you run out of time, your paddle will disappear and you'll lose a life; additionally, you'll get no bonus points upon completing the level.
