Twin Squash
Description
Twin Squash is a Breakout variant for one or two players. It divides the screen into two playfields between yours and your enemy. Matches are best 2-out-of-3 and your goal is to keep the ball active for as long as possible in the hopes that your enemy blows it before you do. The blocks above you slowly drop after every few seconds, and whoever first lets a block drop down to the level of their paddle is the loser of that round. If you drop the ball, your blocks automatically drop a couple of levels but you do not outright lose as in most other Breakout-types.
In order to sabotage your enemy, you should attempt to hit as many balls as you can in a single bounce, building up the combo meter at the top of the screen. Returning the ball after hitting blocks thirty-or-so times in one go will drops your enemy’s blocks faster than a heavy lourde. However, if you whiff on catching the ball after a massive combo, you get no credit for it and all that effort to dog your foe rolls down the drain.
