Thanks so much for the reply, that makes total sense.
It's a great game, it plays well & brings some really good ideas to the Breakout genre. I'll just have to get better at anticipating where the ball is heading! 😄
I played this one a lot today and really enjoyed it, the power ups are really clever.
Sometimes it was frustrating when a ball deflected off a brick near the bottom & the paddle moved too slowly to reach it, would it be possible to be able to give the player the opportunity to press fire for a short burst of speed?
You did really well, you just missed out on the rooms above the Space Invaders room... https://maps.speccy.cz/maps/ManwiththeGoldenJoystick.png
