It's your average Breakout clone. Or is it?\r\n\r\nThis is not only my first ever Ludum Dare entry, but also my first game coded from scratch. I've previously used Stencyl to develop game prototypes. EscapeOut itself is more prototype than game: given time, I could improve it by adding sounds, a timer, powerups, and better visual cues. Still, I'm very proud of what I've produced. I hope you enjoy.<\/p>","title":"EscapeOut"}
