Paddlers is "the ultimate multiplayer breakout game" according to its author. It plays similarly to other Breakout-style ball & paddle games except that in addition to the usual paddle at the bottom of the screen, there are paddles on the other three sides also. These can be controlled by the CPU or by other players. The ball physics work decently well and there are some powerups that you can pick up. One makes your paddle fill the entire width of the screen, ensuring that you don't miss the ball but also making it rather boring for a few moments. Probably most fun with a few others players!
