Brick Breaker Game Manual

Game-play & Specifications¶

A welcome message appears to the player and asks him to press the Button 'A' in order to start playing the game.

The game consists of 3 levels, on the first level we have 5 bricks to break if you break them all you go to the next level and if you do not break them it draws 'game over' on the screen and returns you to the main menu to try again . The number of bricks is increased by 5 for each level, so for level 2 number of bricks are 10 and for level 3 its 15.
The game is played by moving the joystick in the x-axis (left or right) and to keep pushing the ball towards the direction you want using the sliding platform.
When each level is completed the player will get a message notifying him/her that you are proceeding to the next level.
If the player successfully completed all 3 levels the screen will draw 'congrats' to congratulate the player on finishing all the game levels.
Whenever a brick is broken during any level once the ball touches the brick all 6 lights will blink and the speaker will turn on a tone.

The score will be displayed on the top and will be drawn as 'S' and will display the score of the player, which is the number of bricks the player has broken.
The player's highest score will be displayed on the top as well drawn as 'HS' which stands for highest score, if you break your old record you will know !

The speed of the ball is slow, because the game was tested for slow and fast speed however, when its fast it breaks the mechanism of the game which makes the ball lag on the bricks and does not break them when its too fast. because when the ball collide with bricks it becomes faster and uncontrollable. so in order for the game to be perfect the speed was set to be slow.

For controlling the game the buttons that are going to be used in game are labelled in the picture below & each button is explained.
