A downloadable game for Windows and Android

Breakout VR is a virtual reality version of the arcade classic "Breakout" focusing on allowing the player to manipulate the ball as they would in ping pong or tennis, hitting it with paddles to launch the ball at blocks and destroy them. The player can also adjust their in game height at will, making the game all about positioning yourself and going in for a good hit. You can power up by hitting certain blocks which will make the paddles grow or the ball become an explosive entity.

Controls (can be seen in game as well):

  • Triggers for menu buttons
  • Right/Left trigger to hover up/down 
  • Left stick to move
  • Left face button to pause game
  • Right stick for snap turning
