OREAKBUT postmortem

OREAKBUT
A browser game made in HTML5

This was another case where I sought out a jam to suit an idea I had, and just fully ignored the theme, which was “COG.”  Oh well.  I googled “Breakout except you’re the bricks” and didn’t find anything, but I can’t imagine it’s actually the first time somebody has done it.

This is the first time I’ve done a straight-up game-as-joke, and I’m pretty happy with it.  I was able to repurpose a lot of existing code and execute on this idea in just a few hours, which is the only way it was ever going to exist.  Players told me it made them laugh, so mission accomplished.
