Christmas Breakout (classic Breakout with an xmas theme)

Thanks for pointing out. I have the canvas set to 620px high and 900px wide so the browser should display a scrollbar when the viewport cant display everything it needs in one go. Its not great having to rely on the scrollbar in my opinion so i may move the stats box on the left to win back more vertical space for desktop gameplay. Im currently working on a mobile friendly version so i will probably touch on canvas rendering for different screen sizes as part of that work. Ha yes i might create a 'scary' mode actually, make the theme scarier / darker, and see if i can throw in some s -

Thanks for the post appreciate you going into so much depth! I wanted to get the game working on mobile devices for day of release but decided against and thought best to add post-release. Hadn't considered mouse support but sounds a good idea to supplement the keys. Cheers yeah I'd like to make some enhancements, mobile as mentioned above, different themes so not Xmas (which made sense considering the release date) and toyed with the idea of save game files to import/export on different devices, I'm using browser local storage so shouldn't be too tricky to implement.

Hi all I shall be looking to make enhancements such as mobile friendly game play and 'non-seasonal' mode. If anyone has ideas on what enhancements they would like, feel free to get in touch. Thoughts and feedback more than welcome : ) LS. -
Hi all I have a question on hot to make a desktop browser game mobile friendly, ie, be able to use touch gestures. I recently published my Breakout based browser game: And now I plan to make a few enhancements starting with making the game mobile friendly, so i will need the ability for user's to have touch interaction.) As this game was built using vanilla JavaScript, are there any libraries or tutorials that anyone could recommend? Thanks. LS

About Christmas Breakout - Snowman edition (available on itch.io) is the classic Breakout game decorated with Christmas festivities (including the projects mascot 'Snowman'). In a nutshell, Breakout is a game where you hit a ball with a paddle and aim to destroy bricks that lay above.

How to play Use your keyboards left and right keys to move the paddle. Clicking the Res
