Dashball - Now Available
Good things come to those who wait. I'm proud to announce that the highly anticipated iPhone game "Dashball" finally made it to the App Store. Grab your copy and be one of the first to enjoy the smashing breakout puzzle fun.
To start with I’d like to thank you for all your feedback and suggestions on Dashball and the recently released Dashball wallpaper set. Also kudos to the many beta testers who did an amazing job. And last but not least thanks to my wife and friends for their patience and support over the last couple of months :)
The Game
So what is the game about? Well personally I’d define it as action puzzle game where the goal is to destroy all the colored blocks by controlling a bouncing ball. Each of the 25 levels contains three kinds of blocks:
- blocks that can be destroyed
- blocks that can be moved
- and blocks that change the color of the ball.
There is also a fourth kind of block that you will learn to dread: the red skull block. Avoid this one at all costs! Since you can only smash or move blocks of the same color as the ball, you have to choose wisely in which order you smash, move and change colors.

You’re in control
Dashball is designed for casual gaming and therefore is easy to control. Just tap the screen on the left or right side to move the ball one step left or right. Tap+hold to move the ball continuously. And for even more challenging game play we’ve also implemented accelerometer support: Just tilt your iPhone left or right to move the ball in the desired direction.
Let’s rock
What’s the point of owning an iPod if you can’t listen to music? Well, Dashball certainly won’t stop you. Just start the music track before you launch the game. Nice huh? But enough talking, let’s get the ball rolling…
Update
Dashball 1.1 is now available. Besides several bug fixes we significantly improved the accelerometer controls. Make sure you grab the new version!
