"arKristal" is an Arkanoid!

THE FPS is 45 !!! There is a TextField where you can see the "Extrapolated FPS" so It should be near 45. In "Internet Explorer" the VM is slower than "FireFox". Try both and please let me know your FPS & Browser to adjust future versions.

The game should have a very fluid move.

With my own collision engine. Good OOP. And my first game in Flash!

I hope you enjoy it.

-Any comment is welcome.
-Any bug please report it to me.

>>=============> BACKDOOR: press "SHIFT-C" to pass the LVL!

-Version 1.01: New graphics!
-Version 1.02: The pad is faster!!!

I'm not saying it's bad. It's just. It's Arkanoid. The name pretty much points to the homage. But I got to thinking... Why wouldn't I just play arkanoid? What makes this game better?

Even without tweaking the game. The graphics need work. They don't have personality or consistency. Pick an Idea for the graphics and work around that Idea. Fun and bright? Then why the fatigued metal border? Why the dull colors for the blocks and the ball? Sure they have a glossy feel tp them. But that seems like an afterthought. There were no choices made with the graphics. It looks like you made something and, if you liked it, it stayed with no thought to how it fit in with the other elements. No where is this more appearent than the background. Which is the same value as the foreground. It's hard to visually keep track of the ball.

Pick a theme or an idea and redo the graphics at least. I may seem harsh, but I'm trying to help.

"Tough"

It's tough to give this a high rating because it is infact arkanoid with a different name. Im giving a 5 because I do and still like this type of game but if you want a higher score from me, spice it up a little bit. Get creative and lets see a different version of arkanoid that no one has seen before.

I was only testing flash with this game, It is just a classic game, not a revolution. Hehe.

"Good, but,."

date: August 22, 2009

the bat (thing you hit the ball with) moves much too slow, try using arrow controls, or at least upping the sensitivity! Otherwise, this is pretty good!

"Pretty good..."

date: August 22, 2009

It seems pretty good so far. The paddle seems a little laggy, as in not keeping up with the mouse movements as fast...not sure if that was intentional or not. You may want to think about adding some coding to remove the mouse cursor when the game is being played, thought I can't remember the exact coding. Other than that, it seems good so far.

The FPS should be 45. Maybe I went to far with it.
