This is a barebones recreation of the 1976 arcade game Breakout, developed for PICO-8. I tried to stick pretty close to the original, so no fancy power-ups or multiballs to be found here!

Controls:

• Cursor keys to move the paddle left or right
• Z or X to launch the ball

Known issues:

• Collisions can be glitchy at higher ball speeds
• Triggers for increasing ball speed do not always match the behaviour seen in the original game
• Rebound angles off the sides of the paddle can be glitchy
• Ball speed increase increments could be improved
• Original 'demo mode' not implemented
