Game Proposal: Breakout about retrowars HOT 5 CLOSED

Okay, with Space Invaders scheduled to be released with multiplayer support over the coming days, this is now the resounding next highest voted game to be implemented. Looking forward to having a breakout clone implemented in Super Retro Mega Wars? Keep an eye on this issue for updates!

Bananoid style - game board is wider than screen and requires horizontal scrolling

And we're under way (in the breakout branch). First thought was an on-screen controller with left/right buttons, but I think it may work better to just use touch sensitive controls (missile command uses this to great effect):

v0.28.0 tagged, ready for F-Droid to build and release. Includes the first (non-multiplayer) version of our breakout clone:

The main issue is that when using your finger to guide the paddle, you can't see where the paddle is because your hand obscures the view. Will contemplate perhaps casting a "shadow" upwards to tell you where the paddle is, or perhaps moving the paddle higher (though I think that will be a bit odd).

Finished! F-Droid has built v0.29.0, and will release it in a day or two. Please do check it out, update to the latest version, and see if it is fun and fair to play both in single player and multiplayer!
