About

  • Game adds left and right collision detection for bricks in order to bring a ricocheting element to the game. This was absent from the original.
  • Game adds new levels to the original game, instead of simple having two identical levels. Now the wall increases in size as you complete each of the 5 levels.
  • HTML5 particles were implemented to add visual dynamics to the destruction of the bricks.
  • Most sounds are synthesized using oscillators.
  • Atari styled intro animation gives the game a title sequence.
