LOG ENTRY 6712594:

The time has finally come, we have discovered that we are not the only beings in the universe...

Unfortunately, attempts at communication have failed.

Today, battle has begun. Our sensors have detected the armada's approach towards our Mars Outpost.

Our only hope is to head the Aliens off. With our experimental ship, we may be able to thwart their attack on Earth.

Let Fate Be with Us...

Take control of your P.a.d.d.l.e. (Primary Alien Defense Destruction Lightspeed Entity) to help save earth against the invasion of the Alien B.a.l.l. (Ballistic Alien Lightspeed Lander).

Can you save the day?

Warning! PaddleSpace contains many flashing images and colors. If you experience dizziness while playing or are known to be epileptic, continue play at your own risk.

GAMEPLAY

Your mouse controls the Paddle.  A Ball will be trying to escape off the left edge of the screen.  You must intercept this ball.

When your ball hits the paddle it speeds up.

You can left-click to shoot a bullet.  Hitting the ball with a bullet makes it slow down.

All the while, rocks are hurling through space.  You'll want to avoid them whilst using your bullets to break them up.

Eventually, you'll get some powerups including Bombs, which you can fire with a right-click and then another right-click will detonate them destroying everything in its path.

Find out more in the game tutorial!

This is a limited demo.  It's restricted to 10 Powerups, 10 Levels and an in-game reminder.
