3. Paddle Follows the mouse Ball moves based on where it hits
Only along x-axis
Ball moves based on where it hits

Bonuses can dim or brighten the light
Bonuses can..
split into two
Balls can collide with one another
shrink or grow them
speed or slow them
strength is based on speed

5. Brick Types Attributes Regular Metal Rubber
Varying resistances and material properties
Bonuses can cause them to drop
Regular
Random colors, low resistance
Metal
Shiny silver, strong resistance
Rubber
Non-reflective black
Always bounces and speeds up ball

6. Collision Detection Collision class and Object interface
Compares left X with right X
Vice versa
Compares top Y with bottom Y
Vice Versa

7. Shadows
Project vector on to surface
Create 2D black objects

8. Particle Systems Destroyed blocks turn into particles
Varying sizes, velocities, directions, colors
Up to 2000

9. Future Work Soft shadows Different levels Too much speed
Custom
Too much speed
More collisions
