Then buzz it up

Of all the professors we've ever met, probably our favourite is Professor Fizzwizzle. Oh, come on - you remember Professor Fizzwizzle. Professor Fizzwizzle Professor Fizzwizzle. That's right, now you remember.
Professor Fizzwizzle hasn't really been on the scene for a long time, but that's because he's been busy inventing FizzBall. FizzBall is a new Professor Fizzwizzle game where, instead of listlessly stumbling over barrels to get to randomly placed teleportation devices, the Professor has to… feed some animals! OK, that doesn't sound like the most exciting thing to do, but you're forgetting that this is Professor Fizzwizzle we're talking about, and so instead of just lobbing a banana at a monkey, our hero has created FizzBall, an elaborate game that involves all sorts of bouncing and brick-smashing and… oh, alright, look - FizzBall is basically Breakout but with animals instead of bricks and a noted academic instead of a paddle. But if you don't fall in love with the idiosyncratic graphics and gameplay of FizzBall then there's probably something wrong with you.
