    Break-Out

    Break-Out

    The classical breakout game for hours of fun !

    This game is a nice remake of the traditional brick breaker game, which rules are the following. Bounce the little ball with the bar to destroy all the bricks. Try to survive all the levels to get a nice score or go as fast as you can to make the best chronos and be in the high-scores. Good luck ! If the game does not launch correctly, you probably have to install a more recent version of Java. I uploaded a light version of the game (without the soundtrack). Feel free to leave a review !

    Brick Breaker

    Brick Breaker

    A Java remake of the classic Atari game "Breakout"

    This game is a clone of "Breakout", a game in which the player controls a paddle that is used to bounce a ball that breaks blocks. Items are occasionally dropped from the blocks. The game tracks the player's name, lives, level, and score as well. If the player scores high enough, they are placed on the high score board, which is displayed at the end of every game. There are an unlimited amount of levels, and the user can also select to have background music played throughout the game. Catch the green items to make your paddle larger, and avoid the red ones!

    Ik

    Ik

    It's a game based on a puzzle survive sistem.

    The game tells us the story of Ik, a mayan young man. As we know, the entire Mayan Civilization disappears in some point back in time, but actually they went to another place, a better one (Something like " In a galaxy far far away"). The problem? Well, Ik didn't make it, he was left behind. So, abandoned in this world, he found Ok, the stone dog (I know, the names are little confused because they are based on Mayan Language). So, Ok tells our hero that he has to climb the Tower of Challenge to reach the other wolrd, where his people is. That's when the game begins.
