Hello there, this is my entry to the Brackeys 2020.2 game Jam.
It's breakout but backwards, in spirit of the rewind theme, both in gameplay as well as in the retro spirit. The goal is to build up the playing field!
There are 4 Levels, and for anyone who just wants to get to the end: There are 3 hidden cheats that are activated with single button presses. Have fun digging!
I hope you enjoy this little prototype!

PS: I don't know why but apparently the fullscreen button has to be hit twice...
Known Issues:
- On level 3, there is a bug where blocks sometimes don't activate their collider properly and need to be entered and exited by the ball to do so. This causes blocks to nly build after repeatedly hitting them.
- Sometimes the ball can phase through blocks, this is usually rare.
- Sometimes the ball can get stuck within geometry or in an endless cycle. The game detects this and returns the ball to the paddle. This detection may also return the ball even if it was not stuck on rare occasions.
Credit goes to these 2 assets that add to the flair:
[Monitor model and frame textures]
[Music: Be Faster - Muz Station Productions]
And thanks to all the playtesters and people that were patient with me.

I love the aesthetic of this game! Its just soo cool, the 80's feel makes me just want to play an old arcade cabinet! When I clicked the random game button I certainly wasn't expecting a game this good, And once I discovered that (this may be a unintentional exploit/bug thingy) you can throw the ball sideways by flinging you mouse courser from one side to the other... Ohh that got the game so much better. So far I haven't experienced any bug so that's a good on you!
10/10
I had one life left and the ball phased through the last brick on level three! I wanted to cry.
But I won with zero lives left and felt like a god. 10/10 game, bugs or not.
The aesthetic is amazing. And idea is pretty clever well done
