Breakout by Vanessa Clark

Playing the game:

Your goal is to break through the wall of bricks, scoring points for each brick.
You start with 5 balls and gain an additional ball each time you clear the board. The game ends when all balls have been played.
When the ball hits a brick with a star, the paddle becomes either bigger or smaller.
Triple points for a bonus brick (brick with extra rectangle)!
Some bricks are hard to break - they crack when you hit them, but then you'll have to hit them again.
Other bricks are sensitive, and they hurt when you hit them, so they hold onto the ball for a bit...
Have a blast playing Blasted Bricks!
