This is my first graphical game! :D I made it in C++ using SDL. It took about 7 hours total and it could still us a bit of work...overall though, I'm pretty happy with it (being my first game). It still has a few issues, but please tell me what you think of it and give me any comments/suggestions.

The ball bounces very strange sometimes.
You should also make the ball bounce differently depending on where on the paddle it hits.
When I began playing, the ball whet straight up, bounced on the indestructible bricks and was stuck. I had to close the program.
hmm...I have had the ball bounce strangely sometimes but I haven't had it get stuck. Thanks for the suggestions!

Sometimes, the ball moves faster than the paddle, which makes it impossible to catch the ball...
Make the ball go faster and change direction depending on where it hits the paddle. Do that and your game might actually be fun. Nice work though.
a big bug, when it opens all i get is ( file attached) until i move the screen then i get the game
Lol, try to resize that window manually, Cgawd.
I don't know, this is the first breakout clone I've played where the direction and speed of the ball depended on the direction and speed of the paddle, made it a little more realistic - I could speed it up by hitting it faster in one direction or slow it down by going in the opposite direction. I kinda liked it!
:D Thanks for all the comments!
