A nice idea for the theme and well executed, the sounds are great too!

Nice game, and good interpretation of the theme.

One small bug: Sometimes the ball travels almost horizontally

nice one . I love this sort of game but need a bigger paddle, as tricky playing on my laptop (mac). But well done i keep practicing 

nice implementation of a classic. well done.

Alleyway is probably my favorite Game Boy game, so this game is perfect for me.  Very interesting physics for the ball, I actually like its randomness as it prevents you from getting into an endless loop at the end of a level.  The power downs are interesting, I kind of wish there was some sort of description so you knew what exactly they would do to you.

Simple execution, solid game!

I played this longer than a lot of other games at this jam :D

Also feels a lot like a game that could have existed on the game boy.

I often found the ball would "slide" on the paddle and go near horizontal which was annoying, but otherwise great game! Eventually died to the tiny paddle on stage 2 w/ score of 11,200. I quite liked the online leaderboard feature too.

I love breakout so this was right up my alley and I like that you added a global leaderboard I actually managed to get on it. Fun entry also slide is an evil perk to add lmao.

You got the gb aesthetic down so well! and awesome use of the secondary theme. I think my only issue is that some of the jinxes might have a need for an epilepsy warning. Other wise there is so much replayability here! 

This was challenging, great idea using a classic and making the rewards a pain.

Not much is as game boy as a Breakout clone, since the console launched with Alleyway. I like this take on the concept, as I've never played "What if Alleyway hates you?" before.  Spot on visuals, solid gameplay, and great sound design.

Oh man I've always loved breakout style games. I was doing pretty well then got slammed with 4 jinxes at once and died pretty much immediately. Lots of fun.

An interesting take on the classic brick-breaker. The ball seemed to bounce a little awkwardly at a couple points and ended up shooting straight down after I got a Fastball and Inverted controls so it's possible to feel like the game gave a "cheap shot" kill, but overall it's well made.
