Bal Cube is a ball and paddle type arcade game that gives two players control over their own bouncing ball shaped like a cube or "bal cube." Unlike Arkanoid, instead of controlling horizontal movement of a paddle at the bottom of the board, players horizontally control their bal cube destroying blocks in the level and making use of stationary paddles on the floor that temporarily disappear when used. Players can interfere with their opponent by making combos and sending ghost blocks.

breakout but you control the ball? well, yeah, but there's more to it than that; the answers to the design questions ball-not-paddle controlling brings about are good, and the design choices independent of that are also good. (i also really love this game's aesthetic; yeah it's weird, but i love it! why is the border like that? i dunno! why are there photographs for the backgrounds? i dunno, but i dig it!)
