p5 Breakout

OK, I have p5 running. Let’s see if I can add some interactivity! I Googled and found a hacky inplementation of Atari Breakout in processing. I ported it – and all of its global variables and complete lack of good coding practive, but I digress – and got it running in the browser. This sorta works.

I have now ported the game of Breakout using p5.js, embedded within a post. The original code is a bit hacky, as you’ll need to place your mouse over the game, then use left and right arrows to control the paddle.

Play breakout!
