The goal of The Big Break is to use the ball to break all of the bricks in a stage by bouncing the ball off the paddle. Miss the ball three times and the game is over. Press SPACE or click the screen to launch the ball off of the paddle (make sure the wall is done forming first!) The paddle will follow your mouse, so move it to hit the ball and send it towards the bricks. Press R to restart the game. Press B to toggle "break-thru" mode (from the Atari 2600 version of the game), where the ball doesn't rebound off of bricks.
