Plot

You were on a space mission collecting ether from a nearby nebula to replenish your colonies fuel supplies when all of the sudden, Acky appeared in his saucer and started collecting the same ether as you and started stealing your ether supplies. Your mission is to collect ether and conquer each zone of the nebula to prevent Acky from taking over.

Gameplay

The gameplay is based on Atari's seminal Breakout from 1976. The "XP" in the game's title stems from a game mode called "XP mode", where the player can collect 26 unique gemstone power items (e.g., blaster, laser, gluon cannon, tractor beam and "prediction beam"). The game includes 150 levels which are extended by two free level packs with 50 levels each. The game features an online highscore board, 80 different brick types from 21 custom brick classes, a level editor, particle effects and object morphing.
