In its core VoxelNoid is a break-out-variant with 3D voxels:
the bricks, balls, extras, even the bat, all voxels.
The voxels ain't just eye-candy though. They are an essential game-play element:

If a brick is destroyed then it explodes into the tiny voxels it is built of, filling the playfield with voxel-debris.
As soon as the ball approaches such debris it starts to swirl around and flies to the bat, where it is converted into energy to charge the laser.

And guess what:
with that laser you can blast away those bricks in rows!
Even those harder blinking bricks the ball cannot destroy cannot withstand a well aimed laser-blast for too long.
Besides that the laser can be your last resort in critical situations since the ball is slowed down while firing.

And real high scores can only be achieved by true laser-masters.
When you destroyed all normal bricks the next level is entered - and there are 30.
