Shootmoon's Tower
Left and right to control. Game over if the tower reaches the top or bottom of the screen or if you lose the ball. My advice, start with the sides of the tower to slow its descent.

Cool idea of combining arkanoid with space invaders mechanics
Thanks, hope you enjoyed it.
Rich sounds, pleasant music and background.
As for the game itself, I don’t believe that it’s possible to beat it - no matter how hard I try, I don’t even have time to remove the first page before the structure falls on me.
Once I was able to touch the bonus, which changed the direction of movement of the structure and it began to rise.
I thought “Yes! Now I can win, the whole idea was to hit the raising bonus in time,” but in the end, the structure touched the ceiling and I lost.
After that I thought “What?!”
I like the idea that the ball can be lost both below and above and maybe this challenge is enough? Now this is an almost impossible game, which is a pity.
Thank you for checking it out, this is my first game on itch.io and it's great to receive feedback on it. There's a bit of a trick to it, in that if you take the blocks at the side out first the rate of descent (or ascent if one of the green blocks has been hit) is vastly slowed, since the tower only moves vertically after touching the side. Also if you hit the green blocks at the right moments you can pretty much triple the time available to clear the tower (e.g. switch it to upwards just before it gets to the bottom, then downwards again when it gets near the top).
I've made a video of me getting to level three here if you're curious, it's definitely challenging though, I've probably played it more than anyone and I only make it past the first level about half the time. I'll be making a sequel which will, I hope, iron out some of the shortcomings of this one.
very fun! very hard! i like the music a lot but i cant clear even level 1! i like the multi-ball mechanic, its very satisfying.
Thanks so much Rassoc, glad you liked it, my advice for having a better chance of clearing the tower is to start with the sides first. When the tower is narrower it won't descend so quickly as it only moves vertically when it gets to the side of the screen (exactly like in Space Invaders.
