Brick-Breaker-Project

Hackathon Game Brick Braker

To Do

• discuss game logic and desired functions
• discuss layout
• create a layout prototype with figma
• setup a development environment
• create comon git repository
• create field with figma
• decide if browser game (mobile first approach?) or as an app
• launch game with netlify

Description

• try to clear a wall of bricks using a paddle and a ball. If the ball falls down beneath the paddle, the game is lost.

Functions

• move the paddle with arrow keys

• ball breaks brick(s) after collision

• ball gets reflected on the walls

• ball bounces/gets reflected when hitting bricks

• ball gets reflected by the paddle

• (pitch the ball when it hits the corner of the paddle)

• unbreakable bricks for more difficulty

• if ball falls under the table disappear

• high score board

• sound when brick gets destroyed, game is lost or when paddle bounces ball

• background soundtrack

• (optional) action bricks, which gives additional or other colored balls

• arcade mode and random mode/endless mode

• animation when brick is destroyed

• paddle and ball animations (that it transitions smoothly)

• destructable bricks can take different amount of hits (have hitpoints)

• destructable bricks have different colours

• extra features

  • iron wall
  • plasma ball
  • multi balls
  • change paddle size

Logic

• create walls and paddle
• create brick wall
• release ball with spacebar
• if all bricks are cleared, move to next level
• transform destroyed bricks into points
• if ball gets lost, game is lost
