   I've been looking for a particular 2D breakout game that features the voice of comedian Rowan Atkinson who says something whenever you lose a level.

   I got it as a demo around 15 years ago, but cannot remember the name of the game. I'd love to find it again. If anyone recognises or remembers the name of the game because of the comedians voice (he plays Mr Bean and Black Adder, and for British viewers featured in the comedy sketch show in the late 80's called ''It's not the Nine O Clock news''

   One of the power ups increased the size of the ball with no limit to the size of the ball, so, if you continued to collect the increase ball size power up it was cumulative so you could end up with massive balls, though it would only affect the ball you had hit when picking up the power up and no others that may still be in play after picking up a multi ball.

   Does anyone know or remember the name of such a breakout/arkanoid game?

   I've researched this on and off for several years. I don't think the actor actually gave permission for his voice to be used; as I cannot find any references in his own wiki or biographies. This leads me to believe the voice could be someone pretending to be him rather than it being his actual voice; however I remeber it being so like his voice.

   Very sorry for your loss.

   Hopefully you won't have to wait long for the visa -- according to an Australian gov web site, they can be approved within hours, or a business day or two at most. The only disclaimer I saw was that the application had to match your passport exactly.

   Far as your game hunt goes, IMHO there's too much noise in search results if you use Atkinson's name. There are relatively few results however if you search on something like PC breakout game 2007. Maybe one of the games you come across that way will jog your memory, or worse case, since there aren't that many maybe you could track some/most/all of them down to try?
