How to Play

Move the paddle to bounce the ball and break all bricks. Don't let the ball fall! Clear all bricks to advance.

Objective

Use the paddle to keep the ball in play and break all the bricks. Clear every brick to advance to the next level. Lose all your lives and the game ends. Broken bricks may drop power-ups — use them and the special brick types to clear levels.

Controls

• Mouse: move the paddle horizontally
• Keyboard: ←→ or AD to move, Space/↑/W to launch the ball
• When laser is active, Space/click fires lasers upward
• Touch: drag on the screen to move the paddle, tap to launch
• The ball launches from the paddle at the start of each life
• Hit the ball with different paddle positions to change its angle
• P to pause/resume

Tips & Strategy

• Hit the ball with the paddle edges to angle it toward far bricks
• Clear top bricks first — they're worth progression
• In higher levels, some bricks need multiple hits
• Explosive bricks chain-destroy neighbors in a 3×3 area
• Indestructible bricks cannot be broken — navigate around them
• Laser clears bricks fast; sticky helps you aim
• Keep the paddle centered when the ball comes down fast
