BrickWarrior - Powerups

As you play BrickWarrior and destroy the bricks on the screen, occasionally a powerup capsule will drop from a destroyed brick (this happens randomly with a one in 5 chance). Some of them are good, some of them are bad, and this page will describe them, what they do, and how to use them. Please note that the sounds will not appear unless you are using Internet Explorer.

Name	Picture	Sound	Description
Updown			Enables the paddle to move up and down, as well as sideways
Catch			Makes the ball stick to the paddle. You can move the paddle around with the ball stuck to it, then click the mouse to let go of the ball
Fast			Makes the ball go faster
Slow			Slows the ball down
Thin			Makes the paddle skinnier
Wide			Makes the paddle wider, but at a certain size it gets a split, and any more wides will make it split in two, and one of the halves falls off the screen.
Triple ball			Splits each of the balls on the screen into three, for a maximum of nine balls bouncing around
Protect			Puts a gold line of protection at the bottom of the screen, that the balls will bounce off. It only lasts one level, or until a ball bounces off it.
Random		Random sound	Randomly gives you a powerup: sometimes good, sometimes bad
Purple Bubble			Upgrades the ball. A green ball will become a bubble ball. A yellow or red ball will become a purple ball. Purple balls smash even gold bricks.
Red Bubble			Upgrades the ball. A green ball will become a bubble ball. A yellow or purple ball will become a red ball. Red balls go straight through bricks.
X			Kills the paddle by turning it red. Balls will go through a red paddle, and the only way you can recover your paddle without losing a ball is by getting another powerup.
