http://www.pippinbarr.com/games/breaksout/

Designer: Pippin Barr

Goal of the Game: Play through the variations of block breaker and try to get the highest score possible

Game mechanics: You move the pad so that the ball will hit the pad and launch the ball into the blocks breaking them on contact

Controls: Two touch pads on left and right to control the pad

Themes: Social Issues. I believe the variations of the games address a social issues. One game was called edubreak so that would address education

Is it a cyborg game?: Yes it is a cyborg game. Is it a cyborg game because it is blasphemous. It is blasphemous because it isn’t like any typical game. It doesn’t have main character, it doesn’t have a narrative and it doesn’t have typical objective. It also is an endless game and there is not competition in it despite the fact that it gives you a score but there is no leaderboard. Breakout isn’t your average game
