Reviews for "Voyager Breakout"
good
but it could do with a better sound track maybe use more than one song rather than the same on on loop. Need more lives on the last level :P

I try to stay away from copyrighted music.
You got to have some challenge ;)
"Great game based on Star Trek"
Nice game. The music was a little off, but I plan to play the next one, so I'm sure it was improved. ^,^ Otherwise, it became challenging after a while, and I liked it.
Yeah, Janeway, Harry, Tom, and Chakotay probably played a multi-person game of breakout(If that's even possible, which in the 24th century, it would be) on the viewscreen when things got boring. Tuvok would be the scorekeeper of all the credits put in for who would win, etc. I've always wondered what was on that screen when nothing was happening...
Really fun!
Apart from making me have an epilectic fit, you wow'd me over with this impressive breakout game! The animation was smooth, the music was not overly annoying, and the ingenius flashing bricks was a great addition.
Just a few pointers!
Maybe add different music to play in the background.
Have a 3 - 2 -1 before the next ball comes into play so many times I did not pay attention and struggled to reach it.
Many of us have lap-tops and searching for a breakout game with using the 'left' and 'right' buttons are hard to come by, I found it difficult with my pad as it is not as responsive.
I hope those can help, but it was a fantastic submission for breakout!
not bad at all
I wasn't impressed at first, but the later levels came in and it actually became a challenge. I do agree with everyone about the music and I understand the problem with copyright laws, however, that doesn't mean you have to stick with Trek Music. I'm sure the audio section has many other styles of music that would fit the Trek universe... Trek didn't have electric guitars, bass and drums, they had more synthesizers and "unplugged" instruments. Hell, Picard played a flute and Spock had a Vulcan version of an acoustic guitar.
Besides, think about it, you've got a game named "Voyager" with Trek fonts and a LCARS interface, I don't think anyone would slight you for the music if you chose Trek music, just make sure you give credit for everything you use.
I'd even add some voice acting to the game, the computer always talked, so this could too. Like when you lose a ball have it say "click for new ball" or when the level clears it could say "level cleared". Something to give a bit more depth if you really wanted a Trek themed game

I will look for other music. Had I been good to make music I would, but I'm not :(
Computer voice... hmm, that actually is not a bad idea. I will look into it. But right now I'm in library, a bit hard to do some voice acting.
Thanks for the review!
