About the Game

Cosmic Waves puts an entirely new spin on block destruction – the classic arcade genre made popular by games such as Breakout and Arkanoid. It merges traditional brick-breaking elements, including different block types and pickups, with many cool new features that bring greater depth, skill, and excitement to every bounce, rebound, and ricochet! 

A new dynamic in ball control: Utilise up to four energy towers and release force waves capable of changing a ball’s momentum, trajectory, and power

Super-powered paddle action: Boost your brick-breaking with a range of special weapons, and use unlockable gadgets to further enhance paddle capabilities

Brick-breaking with a story: Join a duo of heroic wolves and their robot sidekick as they travel through space and face animal antagonists in a light-hearted adventure

Upgrade Station: Collect resources extracted from broken blocks or destroyed enemies and use them to increase weapon power, tower range, paddle durability and much more

Beyond blocks: Dynamic levels include a variety of different objects – switches, gun turrets, forcefields and more can all be targeted (sometimes with explosive results!)

Aim for a high-score: Completing a level is just the start! You’ll need to smash the target criteria if you want to get maximum points and earn an S-Rank 

Block rocking beats: Enjoy an original soundtrack by Module – the award-winning composer behind the music for iconic brick-breaker, Shatter
