Cool retro brick-breaker game. It’s great that you can adjust the mouse sensitivity at the start. (Though here you can cheat a bit—if I set it to 100% max, I just need to move the mouse back and forth and catch every ball—hehe.) The music is good, the graphics are nice. Sometimes everything falls a bit too fast, but that’s to be expected when many balls are breaking the wall. Maybe power-ups could be introduced gradually between levels, with one new feature appearing at the start of each level—this way, gamification and the tutorial are handled in one go. :) GG
