Since I have made different versions of the classic Arkanoid or Breakout game, I decided to pull them all together in this version that you can find in this github repository.
Go here for the executable and the source code: arkapygame_5_0 (on itch.io).
In a future post I will show you, step by step, how to make this game with python and the pygame module.
There are 5 versions:
- Monochrome
- Polychrome
- Tiny
- Tiny 2
- Randonoid (random stages)
Each one has his style and the last one gives you a random style for each stage. Each one has its maxscore in a txt file.
This is the code at the moment (it could be updated in the github repository). In the repository you will find the assets too.
The video with the game
In this video of the ArkaGame v.5, you will see the 5 different versions of the game.
