Web Game Sequels of the Classic Breakout Game

Retro Breakout (also known under the name "Little Brick Out" game) is a popular ball game that was first produced and released in 1976 by the gaming company Atari as an arcade game. It was still a black / white game then with a multi-colored overlay film and was one of the last arcade games to be completely implemented only in hardware. Later, Breakout for computer, meaning PC, was programmed and since then exists as a software game as well. It is similar to the well-known solo Pong game where you have to take the racket to guide the ball so that the ball touches or hits "bricks", which are located at the top of the screen, and makes these "bricks" disappear or destroys them. If the breakout racket, just like in Pong, loses the ball, you get a new ball, but unfortunately lose the game as well after the loss of a certain number of game balls. Only when all the "bricks" have been cleared and destroyed, is a level in the game of Breakout considered won and the next game level can start.

The History of Breakout

According to WikiPedia Breakout is an arcade game developed and published by Atari, Inc. It was conceptualized by Nolan Bushnell and Steve Bristow, influenced by the 1972 Atari arcade game Pong, and built by Steve Wozniak aided by Steve Jobs. The game was ported to multiple platforms and upgraded to video games such as Super Breakout. In addition, Breakout was the basis and inspiration for certain aspects of the Apple II personal computer. In the game, a layer of bricks lines the top third of the screen. A ball travels across the screen, bouncing off the top and side walls of the screen. When a brick is hit, the ball bounces away and the brick is destroyed. The player loses a turn when the ball touches the bottom of the screen. To prevent this from happening, the player has a movable paddle to bounce the ball upward, keeping it in play.

The History of Arkanoid

According to WikiPedia Arkanoid is an arcade game developed by Taito in 1986. It expanded upon Atari's Breakout games of the 1970s by adding power-ups, different types of bricks, a variety of level layouts, and visual layering and depth. The title refers to a doomed "mothership" from which the player's ship, the Vaus, escapes. Arkanoid revived the Breakout concept, resulting in many clones and similar games for home computers, even over a decade later. Upon release, the arcade game was critically acclaimed.
