It's Breakout with a bit of Katamari:FizzBall

Lord Jezo

FIZZBALL!

Here’s what you’ll get:

* Over 180 levels of brick-busting, animal-rescuing mayhem!
o Hours of enjoyment for players of all skill levels!
o Includes over 40 special bonus levels!
* Easy to learn and control
* In the Animal Sanctuary you can visit the animals you’ve rescued!
o Over 60 adorable species to rescue!
o The coins you collect are used to buy food for the animals.
+ They’ll keep eating even while you’re not playing the game!
* Special kids’ mode!
o Easier, more forgiving gameplay
o Fun, educational animal quizzes between levels!
* Exciting trophies to unlock!
o Win dozens of cool trophies by accomplishing special feats!
* Feeling competitive?
o Compete with players from around the globe for online high scores!
* Zero-frustration gameplay:
o Tired of trying to hit that last brick in other brick-busting games? FizzBall avoids this with a terrific twist: as you play each level, your ball gets bigger and bigger!
o The game automatically saves your progress

It's a cute little game and the demo gives you 60 minutes to play around with. It's Breakout, but it feels less like Breakout and more like a game with a story and characters. Like Katamari your ball gets bigger as the level goes on and you pick up bigger and bigger things. They've taken the XBL concept of achievements and tossed them in the game too so you always have something to work for. The graphics are amusing and the animations of all the characters is fun.
