Nice.  That looks really, really, good.  This will definitely be on my to-download list when it's finished.

Wow looks great! I'll download the new version now.

EDIT: Awesome game! However, I was bored and this is what happened

*bookmarks* Looks great! "Bomb" blocks (that destroy blocks near them, even if they're normally unbreakable) shouldn't be too hard to implement...haven't seen your code tho, so I don't know. We're all behind you!

Huh thats strange, maybe he added some sort of speed control so that when the game starts to lag (as you can see by the greyscale) the paddle moves faster to try to make it look like the same speed.

lol that should be much easier on you now

Btw question: why does the paddle move this fast when there are many balls at once? Or is it just in 15 MHz mode (like I added to create this screenshot)

Actually, neither.  I figured with many balls on the screen it'd be harder to keep them all on, so I made paddle_speed = 1 + Number_of_balls to compensate.  Now that I think about it, a cap would be nice.

The first time I read this I was almost laughing... then I realized that it really wouldn't be that hard...
It's certainly a possibility.
The question is: I have blocks 0-7. Should I cap it at 9, or find more keys/another control scheme for the editor?

Bomb blocks would be cool.  For the editor, you could always go with the Mario style one: scroll through the different types with two keys, or select the block from a list

When I said "another control scheme", that is exactly what I had in mind.

Spoiler For Spoiler:

  No more bug with powerups falling through when the paddle is on the far left side of the screen

capping it at 9 would be fine, although I guess you could maybe change the control scheme and have people just select the block they want to insert. By the way what will be the max rows of blocks in a level?

Looks great, it's on my calc now
Idea: ability to pause.
Nvm, just read the readme
I should probably do that first...
