A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Remake of the classic Atari game, Breakout/Arkanoid.


About

Project created for my first year Entertainment Software Development module. The task was to recreate Breakout, and eventually turn it into a game of Arkanoid with gems that occasionally fall down from the top of the screen.

The main goal of the project was to make proper use  of Object Orientated Programming to develop a game instead of solely relying on functions to make it work.

Known bugs / issues

- Ball sometimes gets stuck on the side of the game screen due to collisions
