JArkanoid - An Arkanoid clone in JAVA

WIP games, tools & toy projects
#1

This game is as-of-yet incomplete. I think I’ll add some better sounds if I can find the time, I will be implementing lives (sorry), and I also wanted to implement a HUD for fun, but I have other things I really would like to work on to practice. Overall, the game engine took about a half-month to develop, since it was my first time working with an ECS structure, but now that I have the actual engine itself, making games like this will be a breeze (while the engine took 2 1/2 weeks to develop, the game itself only took a few days to actually code).

Controls

Pretty standard. Use the A and D keys to move your paddle.
Press F, G, and H for other (lazily done) levels!

I had alot of fun making this game, despite all the stupid mistakes I made in the beginning.

#2

Nice job. I like the old style graphics that were used.

#3

Nicely done, i was working on something similar a while ago.

It was JarKanoid instead of jArkanoid so no ripoffs there :stuck_out_tongue:

(coded in january 2014, never published/finished)
maybe some coop on finishing both projects :slight_smile:
