Krakout

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Krakout is a game on Amstrad CPC and Commodore 64. One of the wave of enhanced Breakout variants to emerge in the wake of Arkanoid, its key distinctions are that gameplay is horizontal in layout, and that it allows the player to select the acceleration characteristics of the bat before playing. It was written by Andy Green and Rob Toone and published by Gremlin Graphics. The music was composed by Ben Daglish. Krakout is recognized as one of the greatest games for Commodore 64.^{[citation needed]}

There have been multiple rewrites for other platforms, including Krakout unlimited, Krakout, and Pocket PC version Krakout for Pocket PC.
