Arrow keys and spacebar, easy peasy lemon squeezey! Features: + Levels get harder (stronger bricks and faster balls) + Power Ups! No ball limit, instead your score is penalized for extra balls you use. This is a Work In Progress. More feature still to come!
This is originally a game I designed for coding up in Python one day, Scratch is nice for prototyping ideas. Basically using parametric equations to plot the paddle position on the circumference of a track. UPDATES + Brick collisions now use atan trigonometry with the direction of the two points (the brick, and the ball). It feels a bit better, even if the ball randomly misbehaves a little.
