Ok,

It's basicly Arkanoid.... but with a line instead of a ball, and the bricks are diagonally shaded instead of solid colour.

I think it was on the KIXX label.

Anyone > ?

My guess would be "Pulsoid".

C64 Arkanoid with Atari paddles - the ULTIMATE breakout experience

[edit] 'Batty' on the ZX Spectrum was superb (I jest not - stick it in an emulator and see for yourself)...

Without doubt. Neos mouse was pretty cool (and indeed Zzap!'s review said the same) but then a few years back I tried my Atari 2600 paddles. And it was awesome. You have so much control over the bat and feel like you're able to manage most moves without problems.

And I got to level 31 on my first go with paddles, which says something, I completed the game next time I played it, something which took me a fair time even with a Neos mouse.

But then again it's worth loading up just for the title tune! :)
