Out at midnight: Bulkypix's Grey Cubes is a brick-breaker with devious 3D physics

Bulkypix should be releasing its brick-breaker Grey Cubes to iOS tonight.

As with many brick-breakers, in Grey Cubes you smash up cubes by bouncing a ball off a paddle that you move across the bottom of the screen. There are also power-ups to collect.

What's a little bit different about it is how the cubes react to being pelted by the ball.

The cubes exist in 3D space and physics to match. This means that when you hit the ball into them, they'll roll around and topple.

So, what starts off as a uniform formation of cubes, could end up being a right mess a few seconds in.
The 3D also means that the game's 60 levels sometimes have multiple layers. You might have to peer through the holes of a top layer, for example.

In one level, stairs are created behind the ball that'll push the cubes around. You can see it at the end of the trailer above.

You should be able to purchase Grey Cubes for 69p / 99c on the UK and US App Stores at midnight.
