Hey guys, well ive been taking a java class at my highschool, and a kid in my class gave me an idea to make a break out game. (Lets just say in that class we only do 10 min of actual work, the rest is spent on playing games because the class is a pushover.) So i decided to attempt at achieving this feat. And well here it is, after 3 hours of coding/playing around.

Now i know this is no Half-Life but its one step closer on my path to getting there. . . hopefully .

You might have to save it to your hard drive and then run it, clicking open is suspectable to error.

Basically its Break Out with a twist, when you hit a square the ball will randomly bounce in a different direction/speed. Levels go on forever, 5 lives. Now i know collision detection isnt nearly as perfect as i wish, and trust me sometimes youll see it hit and it wont im sorry the detection is bassed on your balls top left corner which is part of the reason, but itll do. Also if you change the focus on the window there is a good chance itll crash, not sure why but it does. Working on a pause function but im not exactly sure how yet. If you find anything wrong besides what is already stated, please tell me.

Hope you guys enjoy!

P.S. if anyone can think of a classic game such as this please let me know, lookin for lil programs that would be fun to remake.

Criticism Is Accepted.

Yes, this is a JAR file, not an applet. Dont try and open it with a web browser it wont work. Just double clicking on the Jar file should open it up in a new window.

Totally and utterly off topic but you've just given me a plan for a DoD:S map (which is good because my last plan fell flat on its face).

Some kind of Dod:s variation on breakout, the tfc map cstone and I did.
