Blockit

This game is a variation on the old bat and ball game. The difference here is that instead of knocking a ball back to your opponent, the aim is to stop the balls hitting the boundary on your side of the screen. The balls appear several at a time and move across the screen at differing speeds so that you have to dash from one end to the other to

hit them. If you miss, you lose a life, if you hit lots, you get extra lives. There are very many different options you can use to make each game different. These include speed and different game screen choices, e.g. vertical game with balls coming from top and/or bottom, horizontal game etc. An interesting game from Graham who has several others in the

library. Created by Graham Lund and released as freeware in 1994.
