It's making headway, but needs improvement.
What's with the weapon selection on the side of the screen and how do you use it?
Maybe improve graphics to a different style.(The drawing theme looks weird)
You need a different sprite for the bricks that have already been hit once, such as a cracked brick maybe?
I think this game has great potential!
I'm guessing this is meant for iphone right?
Edit: After trying it again, the ball kept getting stuck on the side of the paddle and the ball sometimes getting stuck moving horizontally from wall to wall.
Good luck with your game!

Thanks!

Buttons on right will be bonus things, they'll only appear when you've collected a bonus. Just place-holders atm, wanted make sure they appear and stay where they should.

While I'm working on it will be using my sketches, slightly better than just square blocks and allows me to check collision and physics working ok.

Drawn and scanned part broken bricks, just need to add.

For android and iphone.

Cool!

Not bad. The bouncing works OK... but a few times, the ball got stuck in a repeating pattern I couldn't get out of. You could address that with an option for restart, or maybe just a button that adds a small random "kick" to change the pattern.

The graphics style doesn't really appeal to me. I like the look of hand-drawn graphics in some games. But these are a bit too rough. But that's just my personal taste.

Still, I think it's a good start you can build on. With more features (and maybe a different graphics style) this could be a good mobile game.
