I like that twist!
This game keeps me on edge. Really fun and beautiful and addictive.
I love this. The way start of the game where the regular Breakout game melts away into the rainbow nightmare is just brilliant. Really cool power-ups. It was fun trying to work out a effective strategy seeing as the game is so different to a standard Breakout game. The music on the title screen really set the mood too. Awesome work :)
Fun Idea, really subverts your expectations at the beginning when the ball hits the brick and the sand drops the first time, brilliant!
Very clever use of the resolution! Really cool idea. That initial reaction when you start to see the sand falling is very comical. Really cool!

Fun experience! I was not really sure what happened but it is quite satisfying to play with the sand.
I wish the ball would respawn.
Quite a fun take on the idea, I'm always fan of particles or shader tricks or anything like that that's not just some sprites, so kudos to your game !
very cool take. losing the ball is kind of bad ;)
This was super cool! i loved everything about it! Simple and awesome job!
nice new take on breakout, and so pretty as well
It's so pretty. Like a rainbow wall of death. Super fun and addictive. Great work!
Super satisfying! falling sand & particle simulations take a lot of work so good job getting it running so flawlessly!
Addicting! Very creative!!!

Just when I thought there's no way to innovate Breakout anymore, you come up with this. Crazy fun. Graphics are nice, the "breaking out" is satisfying and the sounds are fitting. The one thing I would have liked is a catchy soundtrack to keep me pumped as I bounce back the sand :)
The sand was enough to distinguish it from other Breakout-type games, but then you added those really satisfying powerups! Awesome work.
A little fun addictive game. Well done!
A new take on breakout. Gorgeous concept and suits the pico8 beautifuly.
It's a very impactful game. :-O
