Jet Ball for the iPhone and iPod Touch Video Review

What do you get when you take the gaming classic breakout, and throw in a healthy helping of the old Mac favorite Airburst? You get Jet Ball.

Jet Ball uses the same paddle/ball premise as Breakout and countless other games. However in addition to clever, cool, and challenging block layouts (which has been done elsewhere) Jet Ball adds special features like long paddle / short paddle, magnetic paddle, etc., all of which are similar to the different extras in the balloon-popping action of Airburst. Jet Ball has so many special functions/features, it can get tough at times to keep them all straight, and remember at a glance whether a feature is good or bad (if you're brave, go for the negative features like short paddle: they're worth three times as many points)

The action is fast, the levels are fun, and you're always left with that "just one more time" feeling at the end of the game. This version has a few quirks due to the location of the OpenFeint information, which covers the paddle/info at the bottom of the screen, but otherwise, it's hassle-free:
