Barkout 1.2.0
Gaming like it's 1989
Fat Horse Games presents... Barkout! Or Yet Another Arkanoid Clone.
Created as a learning exercise in C, Barkout is an Arkanoid clone containing all the brick-breaking features you might expect: bonuses, baddies, bricks and balls.
Story
After the mothership was destroyed, only pilot Willow "Twiglet" Twiglington and her spacecraft the Maus survived, only to be warped in space, trapped on the unforgiving surface of a hitherto unknown planet...
...take off every Twig!
Changes since last version
- New multiball powerup - the ball will split in three when collected and a life is only lost when all three balls are lost
- An old-school "continue" mode. Every fourth level a code is displayed that can be entered on the main menu to continue from that point. No save games here!
How to play
Use the bat to direct the ball to destroy the bricks. When all bricks that can be destroyed have been destroyed, you advance to the next round and do it all again. Catch falling powerups to improve your chance of success, and fight through 40 levels to defeat the evil Cat Empire.
