The Macintosh Paddle Game Returns


Brickles is back in a faithful revival

Brickles is back in a faithful revival, the Pro v1.0.5 version - Brickles Pro, the Classic Ball and Paddle Game for Macintosh (the successor to Brickles3000.) Brickles Pro is not a typical ball and paddle game. Brickles Pro features adjustable colors and patterns, adjustable ball and paddle sizes, stereo sounds, adjustable speed and window sizes, and more. Even the number of paddles in the game can be changed.

Brickles Pro is suitable for everyone from the very youngest children first learning to use a mouse, to fast-paced arcade fans, from grandparents to grandchildren. With the new experimental speed control, Brickles Pro can even be set to play at super-slow speeds, allowing its use by those just recovering from strokes. This same new experimental speed control also allows speed freaks to get every last ounce of power when used with the new, faster Macs.

Brickles Pro allows the user to chose from among various built-in Brickle array designs. Brickles Pro will then use the chosen design for every level of the game, if desired. A random mode may also be chosen to allow each level of the game to use a randomly selected Brickle design array. Brickles Pro thus includes many Brickles games in one.

Brickles Pro now supports the new Brickles Pro Online Hall of Fame web page. Every time you get a new high score, you can send that high score to the Online Brickles Pro Hall of Fame web page. Compare your score to the scores of your friends, schoolmates, family members, and others from around the world. Everyone is a winner. There are various Scoreboards associated with each of the many possible Brickles Pro configurations.
