XBoing is a blockout-style arcade game: you control a paddle at the bottom of the arena, keeping a proton ball in play as it bounces around blasting apart walls of blocks. Every block carries its own point value — the more you destroy, the higher your score climbs.

Juggle up to five balls at once, trigger bombs and teleports, land sticky-paddle catches, and chase power-ups across 80 unchanged original levels — or build your own in the in-game editor.

You can install it on your desktop through the SDL2 port, or play it right now in your web browser — no download needed.

This is a new website for XBoing, replacing the look of techrescue.org/xboing — same home for the game, just a fresh design. The original 1996 release stays downloadable below.
