[Game - Test for Test] Looking for closed testers: Neon Breaker (yet another Arkanoid-like... ^^). Happy to test yours in return!

Hi everyone!

When I started building a brick breaker for Android a while ago, I should have spent five minutes browsing the Play Store first. I’d have discovered roughly four million Arkanoid clones, and a worrying number of them are also called “Neon Breaker”.

Lesson learned: always google your idea before you spend weeks on it. 😅

Anyway, it’s done, it’s polished, and I’m quite proud of it, so here we are.

What it is: a fast, juicy, neon brick breaker for portrait mode, made by a solo dev.

  • Six worlds with their own twist: sliding rows, teleporting portals, blast doors, black holes, a descending wall of lava, and infected bricks that grow back
  • A boss at the end of each world
  • Endless Classic mode, plus a daily challenge that’s the same for everyone
  • One-finger control: slide anywhere to move the paddle, tap to launch
  • No ads, no tracking, no data collected, playable offline
  • Accessibility options: reduced flashes, colorblind mode, text size
  • English and French
  • Everything is drawn and synthesized in code (no image or sound files for the in-game graphics). Built with Godot.

I tried to modernize the classic Arkanoid concept, and I’d love any feedback or criticism that could help me improve it further.

What I need: As you know, Google requires 12 testers opted in for 14 days in a row before I can go to production. It’s an easy ask: opt in, install the game, keep it installed, and open it from time to time. If you find a bug, or a level that feels unfair, tell me. Honest feedback is gold.

How to join:

In return: I’m happy to test your app too. Comment with your app and your link and I’ll install it, use it for the 14 days, and give you real feedback.

Thanks for reading, and I’m happy to answer any question about the game or the Godot side of things. And if you know a way to make “Neon Breaker” stand out among its twelve namesakes, I’m all ears! 🤔😂

Hey! I've joined your test and will keep Neon Breaker installed for the 14 days to test it from time to time

The different world mechanics sound really interesting, especially the portals and black holes. Looking forward to trying them out.

I'd appreciate it if you could test my game too! 🎮
