I made a start on Breakout

[Michael Clease]

Simple version of a classic, I will work on making it better once I've had some sleep.

Enjoy.

hi michael:)

pretty nice thing! - I have test it some minutes before and it remember me the classic pong game I have seen the first time at grandmas tv ;) twenty years ago...

what feature you will include for the next releases?? I am curious to see it and like such simple games:) what about a score??? new for me: the ending *.tbasicx... very good! It's just cryptic to see the code !

bye, best regards, Lionheart

Updated. look :eusadance:

[Michael Hartlef]

Nice one. Thanks for showing :)

[Michael Clease]

Some more minor updates but if the timing issues are sorted I will add some blocks like arkanoid to kill.

thanks

Ciao Michael,

I tested your script. Very nice. Here my testing issues:


when I resize the window nothing will be visible anymore
angle of the ball seems always by 45 degree. I remember when Simone developed Arkanoid like example one of the the problems was how to calculate correct angle after ball hit the paddle, the effect, the direction from which the ball was hit and the corresponding next angle. Not simple. I do not remember if Simone 100% solved this issue


Ciao
Eros

Michael,

to keep the picture correct after resizing, while taking the comfort of keeping working with same resolution, just use TBGL_RenderMatrix2D(0, 479, 639, 0) or TBGL_RenderMatrix2D(0, 0, 639, 479) before rendering each frame.
