4 levels of Spanish titled Breakout type game. You get twenty lives to complete four levels, so you shouldn't fail. Don't try to skip levels or you won't be able to play the game right.

EDIT: Sorry, fixed the preloader. Also fixed the music loop. will do a mute button soon.

Simple but enjoyable

This game never gets old, I guess.

While the graphics here aren't the best the game mechanics work pretty well, except for that the ball is right in the middle of the next set of blocks if you finish one level.

A selection of different music styles would be nice, though. It gets boring really quickly to listen to the same song over and over again. Also you should try to lower the filesize of the songs a bit. This flash is nearly 4 MB big, and I think it's because of the music.
While 4 MB might get loaded up pretty quickly it puts unnecessary strain on NGs servers and thus it raises the costs to run the servers (a little example: A game is 4 MB big and it's played by 200 people. That results in 800 MB loaded from the servers.
Another game that is 3 MB big and it's played by 200 people as well. Now there's only a 1 MB difference between those games which today really isn't that much. But the second game only results in 600 MB loaded from the servers, which is 200 MB less than the first game).

Anyway, this is a simple but enjoyable game and I liked playing it.

Thanks for the review man. To put any sort of music in at all, even at low quality, raised the file size quite a lot, your right.

I thought this was a nice little game but it was really just breakout with an Explict song playing. So I will start now:

ART 4/10

I didn't really like all of the gradient and it just told me that you were too lazy to put in much art in it plus the ball is all gradient too but it would be nice to have a better background though.

AUDIO 5/10

I guess since the audio is one of the main points of the game, II guess I have to give it an OK score but why did you put the song in for a breakout game? It doesn't really make much sense nor does it explain anything. But It would kind of be cool to put a bit more sounds into it.

GAMEPLAY 6/10

I thought the fast ball was kind of cool but I think it should be more challenging because really? 20 lives! that's kind of overdoing it so be sure to fix it once you get the mute button in. That's another thing, the mute button should be easy since you just have to put only 1 or 2 lines of code in to do it so be sure to fix it.

ANIMATION 5/10

I gotta say it was cool to made this fast pacing but the only animation I could find was the ball moving and the blocks disappearing but at least the thing worked and oh yeah, the rectangle at the bottom moving.

OVERALL 6/10

I think this could be a good game if you put in powerups and stuff into it and make it more challenging and a bit more artwork because I kind of lost attention at the second level but remember, try to make the game addicting and make people want to play it!

Thanks for the review man. The incredible amount of gradients were because I have no artistic talent. Not quite lazy, it actually took me a large amount of time to get right, lol.

Thanks for the suggestions and the review though man, I appreciate it.

Needs more programing work

Not a bad little game, but the controls are a little glitchy from time to time. I thinnk that you need some sort of control panel from where you can control the music, because it's not my thing there and I'd prefer it set to Metal or Rock. The simple solution is to have a selection of tracks from various genres as the backing for the game, with a selection and a mute option, so that people wishing to put their own music over the top, or be boring can do so.

On occasion, the ball has managed to take out three blocks, when it got nowhere near to third one. I'm not complaining, as it improves my score... no wait, it doesn't as there is no real score system for this. That's beside the point, since it takes out a block that the ball never touched, so something is messed up slightly with the physics of the game.

I think that the graphics could be improved - perhaps round the board off and give some powerups that drop down, like extensions of the board, multiball, additional lives, short duration score multipliers and the like. This would make everything look more like one of these mainstream flash games. I think that sorting a few minor tweaks out here and there will certainly make yours look a lot better and this will be reflected in the score that the flash gets.

I look forward to seeing what you can do along these lines.

Thanks for the review man, I really appreciate your suggestions.

Errm......

It's a good game, and one of the few with a lot of livesa and a fast ball.
The animation is very simplistic though, I think ive seen a hundred games with that texture on NG only......
The music, too, what the F? It's good music but why rap, you should have added maybe 8-bit music or something like that.

It's a good game but it needs work.

7/10

Thanks for the review. I suck at anything art related, so this was the best animation I could come up with, sorry, lol.
