About
Breakout is a 1976 arcade game by Atari designed by Nolan Bushnell and Steve Bristow, in which the player bounces a ball off a paddle to destroy rows of bricks lining the top of the screen. Master Ball is a browser-based Breakout-style game built with HTML5 Canvas and JavaScript, where the player controls a paddle to bounce a ball into randomly generated colored blocks, tracking score and progressing through levels until they run out of lives.
How it differs from the original
Blocks are randomly generated with varying colors on each playthrough rather than a fixed brick layout, and the game uses its own original artwork rather than any assets from Breakout.
Getting started
It runs entirely client-side — open index.html in a web browser and control the paddle with the left and right arrow keys.
