Thanks for a good job on rewriting! Can you please enable back the Versus mode?

One of the most awesome variants of either Asteroids or Breakout I've ever played!

Had to change it to 5 stars because I have played most all the similar type games and found them to be way too easy. This is challenging. If you added deep base space music I would give it 10 stars. Thanks for a great game.

This game takes Breakout and Asteroids and brings them together into a challenging game that sees you trying to clear an asteroid field around your planet. The game has an attractive vector style that emulates the original arcade cabinet graphic displays even down to the points of light where the lines meet with a simulated glow. The audio is quite minimalistic, with a hint of the arcade game as the throbbing rhythm plays in the background whilst you play. It is a challenge, especially to avoid saucer bullets and "power-downs" whilst attempted to catch the ball and collect power-ups. There are some nice touches, including the simulated arcade instructions panel similar to the cabinet displays on many retro games. Breakeroids is ideal for passing the time on a dull train journey, and considering that this is the authors first Android product, they have certainly given themselves a challenge to make their second better than their first! If there is a problem with the game, it is that one cannot play the game until the game has connected to the cloud scoring service. If you have a poor/no-existent phone signal, this can take several seconds..when you just want to play.

The game is much fun, and it is addictive. The neon glow is beautiful, the sounds are very well done and the control is just perfect and unobtrusive. It clearly shows polish. One of the best retro-games I have played. Instant classic.

I'd like to see an option to slow the gameplay speed down a notch or a slow medium or hard setting.

About this app

"If you're the kind of gamer that digs Asteroids and Breakout and are into the retro aesthetic, Breakeroids is one you'll probably want to grab." - Touch Arcade


"With its tight controls and retro polish, we had fun with the game." - Slide To Play "If taking out some asteroids using Breakout mechanics sounds even the slightest bit appealing to you, you’re very likely going to be happy with your purchase." - GamePro (Game of the Day)


"It does belong in the same breath as Asteroids, Arkanoid, Breakout, Gorf and more. It’s that good. Classic good." - Gamerdad (Gaming With Children)


Defend the Earth from wave after wave of asteroids, armed only with a paddle and a bouncing ball. Drop the ball and you lose a shield - lose all your shields and the asteroids wipe out the planet. It's a new twist on two gaming staples - breaking bricks and blasting space rocks.


The crisp vector graphics perfectly complement the old-school gameplay, and with modern amenities like leaderboards and the ability to answer a call or send a text then resume wherever you leave off you have the perfect game to kill a couple of minutes - or a couple of hours.


Thanks for your support in the past.. four years?!


This update is a complete rewrite of breakeroids to better support modern and future devices, as it was no longer technically possible to update the original. I was getting a few support requests about things not working quite right and felt bad that my hands were tied, so here we go, completely new (but old!) breakeroids - and now it's free!


The old hacky glowing effect has been replaced with real glowy blurry lines, and a couple of added effects to them (that can be turned off in options). The downside is that if you have an older device, it might not perform as well. I've tested with devices from a few years ago, but obviously I can't test everything on Android. Let me know if you run into anything.


You can now rotate your device at the menu screen to play in landscape mode. It's quite a difference experience, give it a try!


Gamepads should now also be supported so I've added support for AndroidTV. Note though that I really wouldn't recommend playing games like this with a controller, but hey, at least it's possible! Please let me know if there are any problems with this, as I don't currently have an AndroidTV device.


I did have to remove Versus mode. If it turns out to be missed, I'll add it back (but it would be only for touch devices)


I switched away from using Gamecircle for leaderboards, and also made using them optional, so you should be able to play just fine without an internet connection without having to wait as it tries to sign in. I also removed achievements, because I have Quite Strong Opinions about them.
