A simple breakout clone.
This project is a simple breakout clone, made for fun and experimentation. As of right now it is in it's early stages, heck it doesn't even have a start menu. Only the core gameplay alongwith an basic health and a bad upgrades systems are implemented as of now. The primary goal moving forward is to learn and add a ton of "juice" to the game, and get better at adding visual effects.
Python and it's Pygame module are used for creating the game.
- Control the player with mouse, WASD is also support.
- Press Spacebar or LMB to start the game. Should this be mentioned first?
- If you loose all the lives, game over screen will show, press spacebar or return/enter to start a new game.
- Add as much as I can from this video.
