Breakout meets Top-Down Shooters!

Using your laser gun, you'll have to "guide" balls so they break all the brick walls! But beware, if you get touched by a ball, you'll die!

Arrow to move / X to shoot
Press F11 if you want to play in FullScreen.

This game was made in about 15 hours from scratch, for the Ludum Dare 41 competition with the theme "Combine 2 Incompatible Genres". It was made using the wonderful TIC-80 tool, that I discovered during this jam!

My game lacks a bit in the audio and graphics area, but I tried to focus on the gameplay due to the limited time. There are 10 levels in total! So I hope you'll enjoy my "Breakout+Top-Down Shooter" mashup!

It's an interesting take on the concept. My two complaints are that it's not made obvious at first that you have to 'charge' the balls with your beam to make them break the bricks and that the 'iron' bricks break on a single hit just like the normal ones: Other than that, it's a great simple little game.

Thanks for your feedback!
I'll try to improve those two issues for an eventual "post-compo" version of the game!
