About This Project

Break your way through this never ending brick breaking game. Hold the left or right side of the screen to move the paddle respectively to try and hit the ball towards the bricks! Let me know what bugs you find. Soon to come: power ups, better theme.

What's New

Version 1.1 • Updated 9/21/2022

Added "bomb bricks" that destroy other bricks around them. Changed paddle to a wall object so hopefully problems with that have stopped. Later will add more special bricks and better theme.

Ah cool to see some of Pat's students on here :) Soon we'll be putting together a newsletter with some resources like this video and other tips to help make games.

Really awesome video! I'm definitely going to be adding some of those elements. I think you've talked with my teacher, Pat Watson, I'll have to show him this video, this is the kind of stuff he bases his classes off of. Thanks!

It's a pretty good game, you should make the paddle a wall object like Aidan said, and you should increase the paddle speed because sometimes when the ball bounces a certain way it moves really fast to the side.

The paddle should be a wall object not physics, paddle sometimes swings off its spot.

Pretty nice break out game :). For some reason when the ball hit the left side of the paddle the paddle went crazy and started spinning.

I also think you can make some cool effects to make the game feel better. For example, the paddle has a glowing graphic, maybe only make the glow effect when the ball hits it. There is actually a good talk on the games "feel", and adding the right effects to make your game cooler. You can watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fy0aCDmgnxg
