One Week Left to Make Levels!
Just a reminder that Brickochet's level designing event will be ending Saturday, February 6 at 1:00pm EST. A small number of individuals have submitted levels so far, so there are good odds that these levels could end up in Set 3! But that also means there is plenty of opportunit

Version 1.2.2

Hey everyone! Just a couple of minor adjustments:

Flame Ball particle effect is now more spread out, rather than being emmitted directly from its center.
Paddle tracking of the mouse's position has been slightly tweaked. This probably won't be noticable at all for most players, but it may help the responsiveness of some monitors that have a refresh rate different from the game's framerate.

Music Tracks - Version 1.2.1
Hey there brick breakers! Got a nice little update for you - two new music tracks! Compared to some of the more high-energy tracks, these two are on the calmer, steady-paced side. Hope you like them, and have a good day, everyone!

Version 1.1.1
Hi everybody! Got a quick fix: Screenshots now work when pressing F12. My apologies for not noticing this sooner. I assumed the screenshot system was automatic, but I guess I had to add a bit of code. Have a good day everyone!

Version 1.0.05
Hi all! Got a quick fix here: Balls that increase in size when they are very close to a wall could get stuck in them. Now you may be wondering what V1.0.04 entailed, since I hadn't posted about it. It was a patch to a bug that I already thought was fixed (from V1.0.03). So, in th
Hi all! Got a quick fix here:

Balls that increase in size when they are very close to a wall could get stuck in them.
Now you may be wondering what V1.0.04 entailed, since I hadn't posted about it. It was a patch to a bug that I already thought was fixed (from V1.0.03). So, in the future, if you end up seeing any updates that I don't post about, it's probably to fix a bug that I already thought was fixed. It happens to the best of us, sometimes. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Version 1.0.03 and Future Plans
Hi again! Got a small bug fix for you all, as well as some info about the first major update to Brickochet! On rare occasions, power-ups/downs spawned near walls would get partially stuck in them, jittering against the wall as they fell. It's a difficult bug to reproduce, but wit
Hi again! Got a small bug fix for you all, as well as some info about the first major update to Brickochet!

On rare occasions, power-ups/downs spawned near walls would get partially stuck in them, jittering against the wall as they fell. It's a difficult bug to reproduce, but with all the testing, I don't think it'll happen anymore.
Decreased volume of shooter paddle bullet sound effect a little more.
As for future plans, difficulty modes are likely to be the first major update. Expect it in the next coming weeks!
EDIT (9/12/17): The bug in which power-ups could get stuck in walls wasn't entirely fixed. Version 1.0.04 has been made today to fix this... hopefully. :)
