How to Play Breakout on BitzGaming

This is BitzGaming’s brick-breaker: one paddle, one ball, one wall. It is an original implementation of a classic mechanic, not an official Atari product.

Play Breakout now. This note describes the BitzGaming board — not a generic version of the genre.

How Breakout works here

• You start with three lives. Missing the ball costs one.
• Each brick is +10. Clearing every brick ends the round as a win.
• The paddle follows the pointer, arrow keys, or A/D. On a phone, drag under the table.
• Where the ball hits the paddle changes the rebound angle — edges send steeper shots.

How to play Breakout

• Open Breakout. Keep the ball above the paddle.
• Chip a lane through the wall so the ball can bounce behind the bricks.
• If you drop it, you respawn until lives hit zero.

Strategy that matches this board

• Do not hold the paddle dead-centre. Small movements aim the next bounce.
• A high, shallow bounce clears rows; a steep edge shot digs a tunnel.
• When two bricks remain, slow the paddle and wait — frantic swipes miss.

Are there multiple levels?

This version is one wall per run. Clearing it is the finish.
