Ghostanoid

About

Ghostanoid is a breakout-style game where you swing a paddle through haunted houses to smash ghost-filled blocks. Each level has you bouncing a ball to pop spectral enemies while dodging traps and collecting upgrades. The controls are tight and responsive with a focus on quick reflexes and puzzle-solving to clear stages. The game stands out with its cartoonish art style and cheeky tone. It has a steady rhythm that keeps things fun without getting frustrating. Available on Switch since January 2021 with a single-player campaign that clocks in at around five hours. The ghost themes add a playful twist to a classic formula without overcomplicating it.
