What did you use to record this? I've been trying to record my own gameplay with Fraps, but for some reason Fraps keeps only recording the audio and leaving the video screen black.
When I was a kid, my morning routine (at least for one summer) was to get up, watch two of my favorite TV shows and then get on the computer to play this game and try to get to the last level. I don't remember if I ever did, but even so this game brings back a lot of nostalgia. <3
Great video, I enjoyed watching this. I really love games that are 1) just really fun to play, in and of themselves, and 2) for whatever reason, largely forgotten or outright overlooked by the gaming mainstream. I just got done making a video series on fellow Breakout clone Woody Pop and I think this might be my next challenge.
Oh my god mate, you have no idea how nostalgic this is. I was searching all over google for this game because I couldn't for the life of me remember the name. Oh my god, thank you so much :DDDD
Wow! I remember this! Played this for hours on end on my good ol' windows 98, along with Galaxy of Games, Virtual Springfield, Simpsons Cartoon Studio! What a memory trip! Thank you!
Check out a game that I made>>> youtube.com/watch?v=89g1E49On6k it was inspired by DX-Ball, but has randomly generated levels... infinite levels!! And more power-ups... It's called Chaos Breakout
Nice try! You should now improve the ball speed, reactions and collision detections as well as general gameplay. The rest is easy - the graphics and sound improvements are very easy! ;)
Good Luck!
Also try out my arkanoid-like game (Zyberdon) . Type zyberdon at Youtube Search and watch the video! It was done in Turbo Pascal 7.0! :) Hope you like!
hahah i used to love this game and yes! it is addictive i played it a lot, i'm a fan of simple games, graphics are no big deal to me, but i'd say the graphics in dx ball are fine for the type of game it is.
ive been playing the iphone version but im going to get the original and best again
At level 2 you should move your paddle to the right, click and wait there at the right side. First step in this level is done and nothing can go wrong.
Any1 know the cheats and secrets: Cheats: Hold the ctrl key and press F2, F3, F4 in order to get diffrent powerups. in order to remove the cheat do the same only press F1. As for the secrets: I know one: just press F1 on the main menu, and you should go to the lvl design editor (you can edit any lvl in the game)...try it, by the way don't be superised if it dosen't work, cause it dosen't work on some versions
i have been playing for days and days and couldnt get higher than 38000. until today.....without having to start over once, i got 74000!!! im so proud of myself!! just a lucky day i guess. i kept getting a bunch of things to help me out :) i know i could never do it again though......
like the first comment you got i don't mean to brag i got a high score of 117952 i really like dx ball i'm going to give you a tip thare are 50 levels.
rem. that day when i was a kid... the 1st tym i saw my friend playing, his stage is taking a while and all of a sudden there's a wierd voltage keeps on coming and coming then a LIGHTNING strike blew the last Brick, scared my pants off..
Dude I love ur accent!!! sounds fun... I'll try to beat 40,000-lol ... my friends have psp's and I'm like... who needs a fricken game station when u have the computer?!?!
oh for some reason i download it but when i run the setup it says installation is corrupt! I've downloaded many times but still no luck, could it be because i have vista. Anyone do me a favour and host the installed version in zip or rar so I can download?
Noob! The red powerups are the ones that gives the big points. Laser sux to, it only gives 4 points while the ball gives 10 points when it hits a brick.
The best thing is to break as much as possible with the ball and avoid blowers for as long as possible. That is a real point harvester.
Yeah I remember this game! Played it ALOT some9 years ago or so, thanks for reminding me about it, and for the link...hope it works without any slow-mo programs.
i think you also have to pay for it on a pc! i remember this game but with all the colors and everything but then the trial endded and i had 2 but it but i didnt =D
WOW I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS SO LONG WAS PLAYING IT WHEN I WAS VERY YOUNG THANK YOU!

DX-Ball written by Michael P. Welch, BlitWise {dot} com.
DX-Ball 2 was made by LDA Games for whatever reason, and Super DX-Ball expanded this one.
Should also be noted that there is music hidden in the original DX-Ball. Ctrl+F5 I believe.
