📖 Description

Note

Arkanoid Game JS is a browser-based arcade game built with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and the Canvas API.

The project recreates the classic Arkanoid / Breakout gameplay experience, where players control a paddle to keep the ball in play and destroy every brick on the screen. The game includes collision physics, sound effects, animations, and a complete win/lose system.
