Description:
It's one of the most iconic sounds in all of gaming: the satisfying *thwack* of a ball against a paddle, the energetic *ping* as it collides with a brick, and the triumphant cascade of sound as a whole row is demolished. This is the timeless, perfect formula of brick out, a game that defined an entire genre. This is a pure test of angles, reflexes, and power-up strategy. Control your paddle, guide the ball, and obliterate the wall of bricks one satisfying collision at a time. It’s a legendary arcade experience that delivers some of the most addictive action ever conceived.
The 'Gravity Well' Update Has Dropped!
The physics of brick-breaking have been fundamentally altered! Our new "Gravity Well" update introduces a challenging new block type: the Gravity Brick. Smashing one of these pulsating blocks will temporarily create a localized gravity field, bending the trajectory of your ball in unpredictable and exciting ways. A well-timed hit can create an amazing, swirling vortex of destruction, clearing entire sections of the board in a beautiful display of physics.
To complement this, we've also added a "Multi-Ball Madness" mode, where every level starts with three balls in play from the very beginning. It's a chaotic, high-score chasing variant that will push your multi-tasking skills to their absolute limit. The classic game has never been so dynamic.

How to Play
The controls are as simple and elegant as the game itself. It's all about precision and reaction.
- Move Paddle: Use your mouse to move the paddle left and right along the bottom of the screen.
- Launch Ball: Click the left mouse button to launch the ball from your paddle at the start of each life.
- The Goal: Clear all the breakable bricks on the screen by hitting them with the ball.
- The Golden Rule: Do not let the ball fall past your paddle. If you miss, you lose a life.
The Breaker's Handbook
What do the different colored bricks do?
Not all bricks are created equal! In most levels, the standard bricks break in a single hit. However, you'll often encounter reinforced bricks (usually a different color, like silver or gold) that will require multiple hits to break. Some levels may also have indestructible bricks that you'll need to work around. The key is to prioritize the toughest bricks first.
What is the absolute best power-up in the game?
This is a topic of great debate among brick-breaking purists! While the Laser Paddle is undeniably fun, most veterans will agree that the "Catch" power-up is the most strategically powerful. This makes your paddle sticky, allowing you to catch the ball and aim your next shot with perfect precision. It turns a game of frantic reaction into one of calculated, strategic demolition.
The ball is moving way too fast! How do I control it?
The speed of the ball is part of the challenge! However, you have more control than you think. The ball's direction is heavily influenced by where it strikes your paddle. Hitting the ball with the center of your paddle will send it straight up. Hitting it with the far left or right edge will send it off at a sharp, aggressive angle. Learning to "cut" the ball with the edges of your paddle is the key to mastering difficult shots.
