Brickles Pro - First Public Release
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Brickles Pro v1.0.1 - The Classic Ball and Paddle Game for Macintosh
Merrimack, New Hampshire, May 16, 2004: Ken Winograd and Space-Time Associates are very excited to announce today the first public release of Brickles Pro, the Classic Ball and Paddle Game for Macintosh...and 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 learning to use a mouse, to fast-paced arcade fans, from grandparents to grandchildren. Brickles Pro also features various arrays of Brickles. Each level, in fact, can be a randomly selected array of Brickles.
Brickles Pro v1.0.1 adds a new icon to the Brickles Pro Toolbar allowing the user to chose from among various brickle array designs. Brickles Pro will then use the chosen brickles array 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 requires any PowerPC Macintosh running OS9 or OSX. (A version of Brickles for Windows is also available.)
Brickles Pro is available now for a free trial. For more information and to download the game itself, please visit the Brickles Pro web page at:
