A Breakout remake with one difference – the screen is super wide and can scroll horizontally.
Banananoid is a Breakout type game, this time, though the screen has horizontal scrolling for extra wide screen paddle and brick busting action.
The graphics are fairly nice, the bricks are pretty cool ruby shaped objects rather than straight rectangles and are pretty good.
The game play is fairly average though, it’s hard to control seeing over the other side of the screen, especially when the ball decides to go almost horizontal and at super speeds.
The sounds are PC Speaker beeps and there is no music but that’s OK because in a game like this you don’t play to listen to the music (or sounds) anyway, it’s the thrill of breaking bricks with a ball.
So overall this is an interesting variation on the Breakout theme, where the screen scrolls horizontally and is worth a look if only for that curiosity alone.
