About Breakout

Breakout (also known as Brick Breaker or Arkanoid) is a classic arcade game originally released by Atari. You control a paddle at the bottom of the screen and bounce a ball to destroy all the bricks at the top. Clear every brick to advance to the next level!

Controls

  • Mouse / Touch — move the paddle left and right
  • ← → — keyboard arrow keys to move the paddle
  • Space — launch the ball / start game
  • P — pause/resume

How to Play

  • Use your paddle to bounce the ball upward and destroy all the bricks. Clear every brick to advance to the next level.
  • You have 3 lives — don't let the ball fall past your paddle or you lose a life.
  • Each level increases the ball speed, making it progressively harder.
  • Bricks near the top are worth more points — aim high for a bigger score.
