A nice solid submission, I like the inverted idea of breaking bricks game

Some feedback

  • Too slow, need to be a bit faster
  • Some sounds would make a big difference; useJSFXR Sound generator (google it) to generate them.
  • I would add differing levels of difficulty. By changing the speed, and adding more layers of bricks.
Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I actually wanted to add some background music/sound effects to the game, but a js error didn't allow me to. Basically, because i've used html5 to make this game (not unity or something), i couldn't play a sound when the user didn't interact with the website (eg. clicked something). That's why i could add a sound when you press "enter", but not when the ball destroys the bricks or something.

And yeah, i should definitely add a more challenging difficulty.

Fun little mini-game. Would be cool if the ball moved faster and there was sound, but apart from that, I really liked this game!

Thanks! Maybe I'll do an update after the voting phase of the jam :)

I started playing without reading the description, it's just brick breaker afterall, but I was pleasently surprised to find it was indeed not my classic brick breaking game. That's a really fun twist to put on it!

Thanks! :)

Clever! I don't think I've seen something like this before. I kept expecting the ball to bounce off the other bricks, but instead it came right back to me like a mirror, so that kept me on my toes. I enjoyed this! I matched everything except 1 brick 🙂

Thank you! I've implemented this coming back like a mirror because it was the easiest thing to do 😅 but I think it turned out pretty well
