LBreakoutHD
Grogan Jun 12, 2023
Now here's a blast from the past. I used to like LBreakout2 and LBreakoutHD is the successor to it. (supports modern full screen resolutions etc.) and was ported to SDL2.

I noticed a fairly recent version of this, 1.1.3
https://lgames.sourceforge.io/LBreakoutHD/



I gave up trying to get an interesting screenshot, the timing was never right, but good enough. It's an "arkanoid" paddle ball type game. I'd normally play this Full Screen, but windowed for screenshot.

Available to compile from source (as I always do when I have that option), Windows binaries, your distributor may have it, and it's also available on Flathub. Trivial to compile though, just needs SDL2... typical gnu autoconf ./configure make make install etc.

Enjoy :-)
